Mazda RX-500
One of the coolest concept car here at the Tokyo Motor Show was not even new. In fact, it's almost forty years. Originally shown in Tokyo in 1970 showed, this Mazda RX-500 concept features a similar style to the legendary Ferrari 250 GTO Breadvan, gullwing doors that swing forward, and a 491cc rotary engine just behind the chair. Weighing in at just 1873 pounds, a 247-horsepower concept is said to have reached nearly 150 mph on the Mazda test track.
The car was recently restored in partnership with Hiroshima City Transportation Museum, where it appears to be on display during the last year. Lucky for us, they decided to take him to the show for us to enjoy as well.
