Nice. My old 4-dr. RX-2 was that same color. And I still think that rear quarter view is one sexy curve! Ah, I wish I still had that car....

i was watching the car for a year begging the owner to sell me the car till the little old lady broke down to my brother and sold him the car...it was not cheap thou she new what she had and she owned it from new

she give me a list of approximate 20 -30 local old school rotary owners which she met up over the years and they all owned rx2's rx3's rx4...ect so i will be doing some research and following this treasure map....
