Mazda Rotary Roll-Call, how many owned, drove and loved?

Postby FastForwardWheels » Sun Dec 30, 2007 4:48 pm

I figured a few of us have had a Rotary in our life.... and since I was a pretty big Mazda R-buff I would start the thread.....

1) RX2
1) RX3
7) RX7 1st Gen
2) RX7 2nd Gen Turbo (both)
1) RX7 3rd Gen Turbo

Love my RX2 and RX7 3rd Gen the most.......

hahhaa...i already have my old school rotary project my RX7 GSLSE!

It is soooo much fun fixing it up. When you got the P car parked and you can PLAY with the rotary..it great. I have my suspension in my room already....tokiko blues all around and a set of Eiback pro springs. Next HID conversion...and tint and momo steering wheel...etc etc etc! FUN MAN!

You should def pick one up for fun!
