My lil sleeper.

Something you don't see everyday. It's a real love hate relationship with this car, something was always wrong with it but when its running it is so much fun to drive.

For those who don't know about these cars, they come stock with a 1.4 SOHC Piston Motor, Rear wheel Drive car with Horrible brakes and seats. Even in Australia where people put Rotaries in anything it's still quite rare to see one in an old school 323.

Technically its just an oldschool Mazda with a rotary tossed in.
