This thing is amazing! Those mirrors alone are hella-cool! I have nothing to do with this auction but if I lived out west I would ****** this thing up!

I want it and I am out West, but I have a feeling it's going to soar well out of my price range.

That's actually a little weird now that you guys mention it. The high bidder was the very same guy that recently won my '71 1200 on eBay. Just out of curiosity, I investigated a little and noticed that he's also bought another red R-100, a 73 RX-3 coupe, a 79 Limited RX-7, a 85 GSL-SE and that $14k R-100 all within the past 4 months. Total on all these cars is in excess of $35,000. No idea how he can be affording all these cars, who knows what he's up to. I hope the cars are truely restored/cared for like he said. Now, don't get me wrong I'm not knocking him on anything and our eBay transaction was perfect smooth.. but you gotta wonder what's up there.

But the light bulbs are not Mazda related. Totally different company "mazda". He doesn't know that ?!

I emailed him. He must be pretty wealthy buying all these rotaries. He says this one is for his newborn son.


"hi,

thank you. yes i will keep it all my live. this car will be for my son. don,t worry he's 5 month old. when grows he will know that the car is not for racing i'm going to make sure !.
call me if you need anything. bye."
