Apparently only one R360 was made in 1960.

That "1,000,000th rotary engine" '78 RX-7 would be one hell of a barn find today...

I went to the Arctic Cat plant here in Theif River Falls, MN (they make snowmobiles, four wheelers, side by sides, etc.) and they had their iconic numbered models in the plant itself - I wouldn't be surprised to see Mazda did the same. It could also be in the Mazda museum or maybe the basement of Mazda somewhere...those pictures of the basement of the headquarters in Cali are always fun to look at...
