When you think of cars with rotary engines, chances are sporty Mazda coupes will come to mind. Certainly, that was the case with me when I heard the theme for this month’s Daikanyama Morning Cruise would be rotary engines.It’s been a while since I’ve been to one of these Morning Cruise events and covered it, so I was...
