    Found the photo of my dad with the RX-3.

    Told me he got the dent in the hood when he was tired and he bumped the guy in front of him in traffic.

    Haha, the coolest part is that my dad owned this car when he was around 20 or 21.

    Unfortunately, I think this is the only photo I have of him with the RX-3.

    He loved the car to bits and he told me he raced for pinks with some Alfa Romeo in the mountain roads above Hong Kong and still won, even though he pulled out one spark plug as a handicap.

    Also, he told me he loved the wooden steering wheel and revving it to around 9,000 rpm.

    So I very much so have Mazda and Honda in my automotive identity.
