The USA got the Mazda RX7 with the 13B engine.

So which country didn't get a 13B engined RX7?

Who knows? I have no idea what the worldwide demographic of the RX7, which was a very popular car in the the USA.
The 12A Wankel made it's debut in a small coupe the RX2 for the USA market. It was a pretty nice car.

It was more of a comment about the big saloon having the 13B engine.

Apologies Earl,
I was having an old person's moment. Live and let live etc.... Liked the RX7 in all its guises,and some of the hybrid's - like the Roadpacer - were "interesting"....

Carn't believe i got the rx2 wrong,another look showed it was easy.
Even the tyre smoke was a giveaway,a 180b could not pull the skin off a rice custard.
Would of liked to drive that holden with the rotary,light weight, would be interesting to see it matched against one with a v8 for road performance

OK, back on track....

What's this beauty? (true eye candy)





No cheating...
