Save The Rotary Wagons: 1976 Mazda RX-4 Wagon

I'm posting this next car for all of the wrong reasons.  It isn't really a good deal.  It will cost the next owner more money than it will ever be worth.  And it will probably cause more heartache than a teenager on methamphetamine...but this car needs to be saved.  I guess this is a charity case.  This is a car that needs someone with more money than sense to keep it from going to the boneyard, because how many RX-4 wagons are left in this world? How many more manual gearbox Japanese wagons with rotary engines exist? Screw the whales, save this manual gearbox equipped rotary powered wagon. Find this 1976 Mazda RX4 Wagon offered for $3,500 in Tracy, CA via craigslist. Tip from FuelTruck.

The Juice is Luce: 1976 Mazda RX-4

This next car comes as a tip from JB1025 who writes: Just don't see many of these from the mid 70's too bad for the automatic but owner has a 5 speed to go for extra green $$$$$. Personally, I think it is funny how much these look like the similar vintage Isuzu I-Mark. Find this 1976 Mazda RX-4 offered for $10,000 in Portland, OR via craigslist.

Luce In The Sky: 1974 Mazda RX-4

Mazda's early 1970s rotary lineup included the compact Familia based RX-3, the mid-sized Capella based RX-2, and the Luce RX-4 -- which was supposed to be Mazda's personal luxury coupe. Unfortunately the RX-4 didn't sell well in the US because the personal luxury coupe buyer wanted a comfortable ride, an automatic transmission, and low end torque, which is the exact opposite of a rotary powered Mazda.  Find this 1974 Mazda RX-4 here on eBay bidding for $5,600 with a few hours to go, located in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada.

Few Remain In The Cosmos: 1974 Mazda RX-4 Luce

Mazda's rotary engine has always had too much of a reputation for boom-boom for this particular cylinder lover to ever go zoom-zoom, but that doesn't mean I don't appreciate a cool collectible when I see it.  The LA2 generation Mazda Luce/RX-4 isn't something you see every day, but it sorta resembles a 3/4 scale 1970.5 Ford Falcon.  Find this 1974 Mazda RX-4 Luce offered for $6,000 in Cupertino, CA via craigslist. Tip from K2Galvin.
