Beautiful 3-Rotor Mazda Capella - The Capella was never meant to have this much power!

- Mazda only ever sold 3-rotor engines in Japan, oddly enough fitted to a large luxury saloon called the Eunos Cosmo. But in more recent times, these engines have become the darlings of the tuner world, well, for those interested in rotaries. This is without a doubt one of the neatest rotary builds we've seen in South Africa, and we hope you enjoy it as much as we did.

This car was build by my dad AndrePienaar who is the owner of Andre pienaar panelbeaters in Welkom.
From body work to the engine build he did it all.Aj racing was the tuner but engine was build by Andre himself which is well renowned around for rotary engine builds.
It’s awesome to see this car is still around and looked after.
Hey are you Related to Rocco Pienaaar in New Zealand now
Is the shop still around?
@@zabahlatshwayo5786 no
Very beautiful car👊🏽😎
@@new.Creation.In.Christ no sorry
Thank you for letting us hear the car and not put horrible music over the top
The previous owner and Panel Beater is Andre Pienaar. Fully built by his shop Andre Pienaar panelbeaters in Welkom. I went to school with his son Andre and remember seeing and hearing this machine for the first time. He even took it to his matric farewell.
🇺🇸thank you… that’s a beautiful aggressive looking mazda very clean look 💪🇺🇸…. Here in America I have bought MAZDA R100,Rx2,Rx3 ,Rx4 and 15 first Generation Rx7’s 1980-1985 really cheap sooooooo much fun most where junkyard cars in good condition and rest where abandoned around the southern states WONDERFUL MEMORIES take car sir🇺🇸
@EDGAR GARCIA wya located? Wit you knowledge of rotary Ik who to talk to
@@KickDiesel1 from 🇺🇸 Florida
Throw some bumpers on it
Whoever did the metal work on that car created a masterpiece.
Being from Canada and living in the United States of (the continent) America, I've never heard of a Mazda Capella. This car is gorgeous and I want one now!
they are basically a RX2 or a 616 coupe google it
So so pretty man. Mazda really did make some special cars back in the day.
The looks, the stance and the sound 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Now that is what you call a "MazdaRatti"‼️
Just gorgeous. The flares bring it all together. Must be fun to drive.
Cool retro car 😊. My dad had a beautiful stock standard 12A RX2 Capella Coupe back in the early 80's. He was the second owner and acquired it from a good buddy of his who had bought the car brand new and took very good care of it. It was my dad's pride & joy and also took great care of it until one day whilst he was at work, his little brother "borrowed" it without my dad's knowledge and ended up crashing it. It was a write off and sadly broke my dad's heart.
sad story but hopefully not so sad as the UK Harry being mad at his brother William :) More seriously, I think most of the rotary engines just wore out so fast in spite of their performance so very few survived. Does anyone know different ?
Ag fok.😭
That's the most beautiful car, I ever seen, I like that car from all angles,
I have seen this car on the road before in the harties area .And man is it beautiful,the rotary sound was pure music .
Beautiful reinterpretation of the Capella by Andre Pienaar, love the metal work and the 20b. The sound is just wonderful!
That's a simply beautiful car that sounds incredible 😍👍
I'm 56 now...but would still love to own a rotary like this,in fact any rotary model will do...lol
@Jason Liebenberg I'm a few years older than you, I saw them racing at Kyalami in the 70's, I am impressed someone kept one of these unusual thoroughbreds alive
Absolutely beautiful build & that 20B Brap you just cannot beat. Great video as always, keep up the great work 😎
I will support your channel as long as you support people of color in South Africa
That looks gorgeous, congrats to all involved on this build
What a beautiful little car
YOU ARE LUCKY BRO TO HAVE A SUCH CLASSIC DREAM ///////////////////////BEAUTIFUL CAR..............TIMELESS DESIGN AND STRONG ORIGINALITY......................CONGRATULATIONS MAN 👍
No lie this is the one Mazda I love. It’s lines and lights scream unique. 3 rotor, pure bliss.
Thanks for showing us this great car.
Our pleasure! Thanks for watching
OMG this is a beauty. It looks like my 71 celica that i used to own back in late 90 but this rotary sound way better!!
the body is super beautiful
We love South Africa
Stunning!
This might be the most beautiful car I have ever laid my eyes on
I love this channel many over seas viewers get to see what South Africa 🇿🇦 has to offer and boy we have plenty wonderful cara
You have earned the right to be proud!!! this car looks simply amazing
That is one beautiful car, and sounds amazing as well.
The best Rotary body car in the World, I had one the last one at SIGMA motors in JHB 1978
Very nice car and content. The owner seems like a nice humble down to earth guy...
This is surely 👍 a most beautiful 😍 car.
Can't recall seeing one before.
💎☀️💥🔥🤝🏽🙏🏾👏🏾🥇🇨🇦
Ah, I love this thing. What a beauty.
Acapella. That thing is on song. Brilliant.
That is one of the beautiful cars I have ever seen!
Oh man this reminds me of me of a RX-2 I had, it was yellow just like this one.
Super smooth and classy sports coupe very cool
Great looking car... I've never heard of,let alone seen one.......
It's so cool seeing this car it brought back memories of childhood
Growing up in Trinidad it was called an RX2 there was also a model with 4 round lights in the back called an RE, The model was super fast and sexy to customize old school style. A great car.
They were raced across the Caribbean 1970’s to 90’s with some particularly hot ones in Guyana, Trinidad and Jamaica, before people started bringing down spaceframe RX7’s from the States. Most retired now. There was an RX3 in Barbados ( Mark Maloney?) with a 20B which was swapped out to a 13B turbo. Great sounding and performing engine.
I'll admit, I had no idea Mazda made a thing called a Capella but what a beautiful machine this is!
my father's friends raced them back in the 1970's
@@wmtarr886 that's pretty cool. Did you go to track days with them?
@@shannongramani3309 I was quite young, my father used to help local people with tuning cars and we went to some of the big local races and the Grand Prix in 1975 or around that time, Emerson Fittipaldi was my favourite driver back then even though it should have been Jody Scheckter :)
@@wmtarr886 really great that you have those cool memories. I wish I could have been a fly on the race track back then. I love racing of today but there is just something about the old cars and drivers that's so much more mechanical and raw that I feel can't be matched. I look forward to creating memories like yours with my son.
@@shannongramani3309 I think it has to do with time, your youngster will want to know what *you* did when electric cars were new, daddy :)
I always respected Mazda for their unconventional efforts, they make great standard engines as well, my B-2600i was a phenomenal little truck, I need another one 🐾🇺🇸✌️
Very inspirational build. Also, such a bold colour choice but spot on.
Excellent.
I'd love to see a nice RX4 with a similar widebody style. The 20B has such a fantastic sound, so much better than the twin rotors imho.
Amazing car and sounds beautiful!! ❤️
One sweet ride man,love it!While watching the video I thought it also has some oldschool Alfa Romeo GTA similarities in different cameraangles - Supernice Car!Thanks for the nice video and keep the great work going👍👍👍
Heart grabbingly gorgeous

@kumar seriously? it will probably just be a money sump and your lady will hate you for loving it; liking a rotary is a passion, not a sensible thing :)
Enjoyed your video thanx.
Damn!!!!
That`s one seriously cool car!!!
Damn thats one good looking car...
Absolutely beautiful car!
really nice car. Really really want to get one.
that is beautiful !!!
Wow I am speechless what a cool car and the stance is on point ☝️ the colour and the sounds is just music to my ears so I remember the came with the 12A 2 Rotary engine was the rx3 motor installed after resto moding.
I have always wanted one of these cars. It’s so clean, and sounds amazing. Iv always Wanted a datsun 510, 240z and one of these
Love this car! RHD too! Perfect...
Couldn't agree more!
It is beautiful.
Just superb!
Wow, great car, had an rx2 capella myself. Than an rx4 coupe.
Wonderful memories.
Just beautiful
I love the looks and the stance. I will also have one, one day 🙏🤞
Such a unique and beautiful machine 😍🔥 But also the cinematography 👀👌🙆🏽♂️🔥👏🏼lol and can we get a review on the police issue Cortina in the back👀😁
good to see this car profiled. I've been Google searching it since spotting it in a video from Rotorfest 2022... and I'm way over here in 'Murica.
That's so cool to hear! The love of rotary knows no borders.
Loving this,
Love this car
It's a keeper!
I'd like to hear more from people about rotary engines, just saying
This car is the Bomb!!
I never knew this existed and now I want one.
Beautiful and unique car: I love the sound of that three rotor too. As a Brit I love that Afrikaner accent too from Dewald! Spent some time in SA. You have some gems hidden away there. Now if I could get my hands on a Sierra XR8 or Alfa GTV6 3.0!
Really nice 👊🏽😎
Beautiful car
I remember that car from its first owner as you saying it was a panel beaters car and its where I saw in Welkom and its still a beauty.only lov for that car
Reminiscent of an Alfa GTV!😍🔥
Nice, just need to sort out the bonnet allignment
Pretty sure the coupes were redundant by '76...at least in Aus they were long gone. Mine wa a '71 build. loved it to death...literally for the car.
