Our Take:
- The 1973 Mazda RX-2 is a true gem in the annals of Japanese automotive history. Often overshadowed by its more famous sibling, the RX-3, the RX-2 was one of the pioneering vehicles to employ the Wankel rotary engine. Back in the day, this engine offered a unique blend of smooth revving performance and a very distinctive exhaust note—it's a car that practically sings its own tune!
- With a mileage of just 12,356 miles, this RX-2 is practically a time capsule. Consider for a moment the journey of rotary engines since then; while they've been celebrated for their character and performance, they're not renowned for longevity. Low mileage here is as rare as finding an unmodified barn-find classic.
- The listing mentions a 13B GSL-SE motor Bridgeport rebuild. Enthusiasts will appreciate that this is a later, more powerful engine than what would have originally come with the RX-2. The Bridgeport modification enhances the engine's power and the characteristic rotary sound—more brap-brap-braaaap for your buck!
- Those 16-inch Klutch wheels and fresh paint might not be stock, but they add a modern flair while respecting the car's original lines. And let's not overlook the practicality aspect; with front and back disc brakes and a new brake booster, this ride's stopping power is as impressive as its go. Feel like you're in the '70s but with a few much-needed upgrades for today’s roads.
