Seeing this write up brings back nostalgic memories. I remembered when my dad used to come pick us after school some evenings. The first family car we ever had before the Peugeot 505 and the Benzs. Remembered travelling from warri to the east with my uncle in his beetle then as a starry-eyed little boy going to the villa after writing my junior waec exam. How time flies. I will do anything to have a pimped version of the beetle that was customized by the crews of pi.mp my ride. It was so badass. Let me run thru the net to see if I can see it Couldn't find the one I was looking for but I saw this

nams77: I'm glad that you asked ![]() Mazda R vehicles, such as RX2, RX3, RX7, and RX8 uses rotary engine as designed by Herr Dokkter Wankel (not self-servicer) ![]() ![]() ![]() A rotary engine doesn't have cylinder head, valves, pistons, etc like we do in "normal" engines. If you ever have a chance to get a ride in a well sorted RX vehicle please take it. You'll be amazed about the quietness, vibration free, smoothness, power and grace of the powerplant.
