The first thing I though was RX7.

Looking closer to the picture would confirm this fact. The car to the right is definitely the RX7. Looking at the passenger window shape, the 2 cars definitely have the same windows.

That's a pretty slick conversion. I guess that's one way to get rid of those pop-up lights, hehe...

Wow, that is a neat job. Being a porsche fan, I would not mind the look of 911 on an rx-7. "I shall call it, Mazda 9X7"

If that is your favorite conversion, then this my least favorite one: Crapege.

It looks like a toy to me, but if I were to make a guess that would a Ferrari 308/328 with F40 kit. My other guess however would be Nissan 240/300Z (can't remember the year).

the tail lights on the first one suggest mustang

but I dunno ... im confused

EDIT- well now after taking a second look those bars on the first one and the rounded edges on the second one almost make me feel like it may be a miata or a roadster???

Im sure Im way off but its just a guess LOL

Both look like Miatas

The Silver one is some wacky Mazdaspeed conversion

That yellow car...I believe is a "Fire Chicken" under all those body panels. The "T" roof kind of gives it away.
