You mean the Mazda Roadpacer? Check out http://www.gizmohighway.com/autos/mazda_roadpacer.htm. It's funny, a rotary powered Kingswood.

LOL their idiots, i heard about that, it used more fuel than a V8 holden and was slower than a 202 kingswood. A better idea would have been a bigger piston engine than a rotor for a big car.

I was always confused by my 2nd car... Toyota T-18.

I assumed from the model name, that the motor was 1800cc, but it was a 1600...

Where did the number 18 come from?
