    Is that one of those HQ's with a rotary engine? Heard of them but never seen one.

    Interesting collection of bikes and cars. One thing in common worldwide it seems is there is always a Harley somewhere in the mix.

    You're thinking of the Mazda Roadpacer. Pretty sure that was HZ or similar rather than HQ, and only sold in Japan afaik. 
    Massive sales flop because the rotary did not have enough torque to shift the heavy Holden body, plus by Japanese standards it was enormous, with its wide body attracting punitive levels of road tax.

    The guys here told me (with a little bit of bitterness hahaha) there are no more rotaries here, they all got exported to Australia!

    And then wrapped around trees after being lowered and bridge ported.
