It's not often you see mint, low-kilometre, one-owner cars that are almost 50 years old, but this rotary-powered RX3 coupe is just that. It was sold new in 1973 from Mazda Auto in Kitakyushu, and has travelled just over 30,000 kms in all the years since.
The S102/S124 Series RX3 was built from Sep 1971 to 1978. This RX3 coupe was built in 1973. It has a 982cc rotary engine.
I've set myself an ambitious target, and that is to unearth all of Japan's rusting, nostalgic gems. It's not going to be easy. They're shy creatures and prefer to remain hidden. And, limited time and funds mean they're likely to stay that way, which would be not cool!<More>
