1981 Mazda 626 Super Deluxe Coupe | 2-door coupe | freshly built 12A Bridgeport rotary | 5-speed manual | rear-wheel drive | red
Description
The Mazda 626 Super Deluxe Coupe is one of the more obscure body styles from Mazda's early 1980s range, a genuinely stylish two-door coupe that rarely appears in this form. This example has been built into a committed rotary street machine, making it significantly more than a standard survivor. The stock inline-four is long gone, replaced by a freshly assembled 12A Bridgeport rotary engine that vendor advises has covered approximately 3,000 to 4,000 kilometres since completion. The Bridgeport modification to the rotary housing ports is a well-established performance upgrade that delivers a broader powerband and sharper throttle response, and the Microtech engine management system brings modern electronic fuel injection to keep it reliable and tuneable.
The red coupe sits on a set of 17-inch Simmons wheels, giving it an aggressive and distinctive stance that suits the classic coupe lines well. The exterior bodywork carries honest patina for a 40-plus-year-old vehicle, presenting as an original, unrestored body with minor surface wear throughout. Inside, the cabin has been re-trimmed and an aftermarket stereo and speaker system installed. The dashboard carries three pod-mounted gauges for engine monitoring, appropriate for a bridgeported rotary that needs attention to temperatures. The instrument cluster reads 352,532km on the odometer, reflecting the vehicle's long history prior to the engine rebuild. Coilover suspension and a locked differential round out the mechanical package, creating a car focused on driver engagement. Tinted windows complete the exterior.
Modified 12A rotary street cars with genuine Bridgeport builds and supporting modifications like this regularly attract strong attention from the rotary community. The combination of a rare body style, fresh engine build, and complete performance package makes this a compelling find. Vendor advises the engine has a fresh build, and the car is offered with the opportunity for a buyer to put their own mark on a well-sorted foundation.
