And now you can get started •in three new young rotary performers: The RX-3 •Coupe, or Wagon, or Sedan. You can hang in there with either, an automatic or manual shift. The speed stick makes it fun. While the automatic makes it easy. The decision rests in your hands. But rest. easy. Both come with the rotary engine. Or perhaps we should say go. Driving the rotary engine is the closest thing on earth to flying. It is uncannily quick and quiet and vibration free. You don't have to worry about pistons, valves, rods• or cams, either. There aren't' any. Rather two rotors simply and ,smoothly spin out the pawer. Some power. Unlike pistons in a conventional engine, which use connecting, rods to transmit •power to the crankshaft, the rotors run directly on an eccentric shaft.'Torque output comes from this " shaft. As the rotors make one rotation,• the eccen- tric shaft turns three times. But' as the pistons in a four-stroke conventional engine complete their cycte, the crarikihaft turns two .times. And of those two, only one PrOduces the power to drive, the car. While all three . turns of the ec- centric shaft in the rotary engine Produce this, power three times.
