Description: 1973 Mazda RX-3 Station Wagon & RX-2 Coupe original vintage advertisement. DESCRIPTION: MAZDA AGAIN. Road Test Magazine has named the rotary-engine Mazda “Import Car of the Year"... Again. This year's award went to a model that didn’t exist last year: the RX-3 Station Wagon with Mazda’s new automatic transmission. Why? Read Road Test's own words: "Plenty of Power." The trouble with some small wagons— domestic or import—is that their four-cylinder power-plants can barely pull them along at a respectable rate unloaded, let alone loaded. The Mazda rotary automatic has plenty of power by contrast—zipping through the quarter-mile in 18.5 seconds.’’ "Just hums along." "Even at 100 mph, the Mazda rotary just hums along with uncanny smoothness where many cars sound like they're coming apart at the seams." "It pioneers." "The 73 RX-3 wagon pioneers in two significant new areas—in the mating of a rotary to an automatic and the use of the rotary engine in a more family-oriented vehicle." "No skimping." "There is no skimping on materials. Much of the engine, and the radiator, is aluminum. The oil lines are braided, like aircraft lines. An oil cooler and an electric fuel pump are standard —usually, you’re lucky to get these features on $8000 sports cars." "Top-notch all the way." "The fit and finish are top-notch all the way around.” A "sophisticated emissions system." "One of the most pleasing aspects of the Mazda to anyone who breathes air, is its sophisticated emissions control system ... Mazda cars sold in the U.S. have the thermal reactor system that Detroit is still talking about but has yet to utilize." "24,000-Mile engine warranty." Finally, says Road Test, Mazda is "covered by a transferable parts and service warranty on the rotary engine lasting two years or 24,000 miles, whichever comes first."* In summary, Road Test says, "If any one car represents the direction the auto industry can aim toward, it's Mazda." See it and drive it soon. *2-year, 24,000 mile warranty covers engine block and internal parts to be free of defects, with normal use and maintenance, or Mazda will fix it free.Mazda’s rotary engine licensed by NSU-WANKEL.
