Its amazing to me how similar the Ford Courier (Madza pickup basically), Mazda REPU and this Chevy Luv all look. Its like they copied each other or used the same base manufacturer in Japan to make these.

That interior doesn’t even look well done. CP if we are voting.

I have that RB Dellorto 48 Carburetor and intake sitting on a shelf in my garage. Its a great intake for a rotary, gives some extra torque down low where it needs it and sounds awesome.

Parts are easy, Rock Auto, they ship anywhere.

Happy 100th MAZDA.

Conpared to a boxster, its damn cheap!

The original was better but thats me.

The movie that hit me at around that age was Bullit.

A turboed in line six, sign me up.

Go MAZDA!

15s are good wheel sizes because of the vast tire selection available in that size. Thank you Miata. I run 15s on my 1st gen rx7 so I can get good summer performance rubber under it.

Drop a rotary in it!

Should have made a poll for this.

My first car out of college and still have it and drive it:

It would be interesting to see pickup trucks as a group. I’m betting a lot of American iron makes the grade.

Why restrict this to automotive engineers? I’m a software engineer which means I know code and hardware and the interfaces of them. I also am a jalopnik that has a lot of experience with rotary cars, specifically 1st gen rx7s. You may need my help one day when you get that 1st gen. I think you should compile a rolex

Drum brakes and no airbags, its a no brainer which is best.

Me too. Now they will go up in price and I wanted one to swap a rotary into.

I hear this at every Cars and Coffee and I don’t like there or here.

In collage (back in the day - early 80s) we had a car club that ran monthly autocrosses. One of our special events was the rent-a-car autocross. We sent some rich fool with a credit card to rent some sort of fun car. We then all took our 3 runs with it until the tires failed or the brakes wore out and it was patched
