Rotary Mazda and owner wanted for magazine feature
 

Hello,

I work for Mazda's Zoom-Zoom magazine, which goes out to 1.5 million owners worldwide.

For the next issue of the magazine I'm looking for someone who owns an early 70s rotary-engined Mazda (especially an RX-2, RX-3, RX-4 or RX-5) to appear in our regular 'My Mazda' feature. Ideally you'd be based on either the east or west coast of the US.

The process usually comprises of a half hour chat on the phone with me about you and your car, followed by an hour or so with a photographer who'll come to you to take some lovely portraits of you with your pride and joy.

If you happen to own such a car and would like to appear in the magazine, please contact me at…

Many thanks and I'll look forward to hearing from you.

Luke

Someone should do this. I had a fantastic experience last year and some great times once the magazine came out.

That's what I figured, so I sent him an email yesterday. Who knows, maybe they'll pick an FC this time :cheers2:

I hate to be the one to break this to you Pete, but FCs aren't early 70's. :lol:

:rofl: No shit, but the gamble paid off - they are working the process to set up a local photo shoot of my FC & phone interview as we speak :cheers2:

Nice reasonably unmolested FCs are getting a lot harder to find nowadays. Their readers should definitely be interested. :cheers2:

Same for me, I posted a pick of my 80 SA and he picked it last year.

Would this low mileage FC Turbo II work?

When the time comes how about a low mileage FD?

WTF? Where in CT are you and why haven't we met yet? Looks like litchfield county...

I'm in Farmington, central CT. You?

Follow Rt 9 south to the coast and take a right. Westbrook.

Hmmmmmm.... did you used to autocross the FD with CART or FCSCC? YEARS ago... long time ago... I think we may have met before.

Nope never autocrossed the car. The FD has 29k miles on it. The FC that I just got has 59k miles.

How the hell do you find these unicorns? :rofl: What's your secret?

Just look around on different sites and when I see a good one I don't hesitate in getting it. These are going up in value, especially the turbo s5s.

So I'm guessing you've never been to KDR or Speed1 with either of these?

Did that FD come out of Missoula MT?

Here finish em off in Red..

:lol:

Pete, make sure and have someone else document the picture session. My wife took
pictures of the photog taking my picture during the 3 or 4 hour event. Will make good
memories.

I got it from Arizona.

Looking good Pete. Check it out guys.

Thanks for the article. What he says is unfortunately true in that many are tweaked get in reconginition. I did email them to see if they would be interested in knowing more about mine. Thank you for sharing.

Pete, keep an eye out at the local dealer. When they get the hardcopy in just drive your
car over and have a good chat with the sales dweeb. I'm sure they will hand you a stack of the mags for your own.

^That's a brilliant idea, and I'd most likely get my hard copy quicker that way than waiting for the publisher guy in London to mail it across the pond :rofl:

Congrats Pete!! Your TII is looking great
