    Magazine Ads from when these cars were new

    I get a kick out of magazine ads from when these cars were new. I recently went through all 1972 issues of Car & Driver and found these:

    I'd love to own that rx2.
    I had a four door sleeper, looked like a grandma's car from a distance . Had rally suspension, 13b 5spd. Great memories.
