11. Mazda Furai

The Mazda Furai was a concept car from Mazda that debuted in 2008 at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit. The name Furai means “sound of the wind” and it was the fifth and final design in the Mazda Nagare line of concept cars. The vehicle was designed to run on E100 ethanol fuel and was powered by a 20B 3-rotor wankel engine that produced 450 brake horsepower. The exterior design was based on the Courage Competition C65 Le Mans Prototype and the Furai was intended to be used for racing in Le Mas. The vehicle appeared in a number of racing video games such as Gran Turismo 5 & 6 and Forza Motorsport 4. In September of 2013, it was revealed that the Furai was destroyed in a fire during road tests by Top Gear in 2008.
