Mazda RX-7 Spirit R: The Glory Days of Japanese Sports Cars - Ignition

On this episode of Ignition, Carlos Lago convinces Mazda to hand him the
keys to the only left-hand drive RX-7 Spirit R in the world. After a quick look underneath the car, Carlos hits the winding road to explore the involving driving experience and rotary engine that made the Mazda RX-7 so unique, as well as its connection to the new generation of lightweight, rear-wheel drive coupes like the Subaru BRZ and Scion FR-S.

The RX7 and the 240sx were my dream cars back in the day.... The rx7 was unattainable.... ended up with a 240.... but if I were offered the last gen RX7 now, I'm pretty sure I would pick it up no matter what....
