Looks like an rx-3 or 4

Damn, wonder if RB sells headers for that four rotor (not to mention motor mounts

Dreamily ponders the thought of a n/a 4 rotor 1st gen

peace

That looks nothing like an Rx-3 or 4. It's actually a 69-71 Mazda Luce.

The Luce was basically Mazda's luxury line of rotary powered vehicles. It started in 1969 with the Luce pictured and ran all the way up to the 20B powered Cosmo in the early 90's. I'm not exatly where they were sold outside of Japan though. I know Australia didn't get any...

The Ro80 was manufactured by NSU during the 60's. This one is "Genuine Japanese Meat."

The R130 Luce was FWD and had a 13A in it. Man, they should just put a 12A in it as they're the same length and will make more power these days.
