The younger generation knows Mazda mostly for their hatchbacks and sedans. But back in the day the Japanese car maker was more famous for its sports cars. They have a natural gift for it, and even though they rarely use it anymore, you can still feel that Mazda charm every time you drive an MX-5, or even a run of the mill Mazda3. The most remarkable sports car Mazda ever made is the RX-7, which is why Carlos Lago went to enormous length to drive one.

This car is pretty unique, as it is an RX-7 Spirit R, the final limited-production series of the RX-7 featuring extra goodies like Recaro bucket seats and high performance brakes. What’s more, this is the only left-hand drive RX-7 Spirit R in the world. Special car this.
