"You pull up here, you know what’s up."

LOS ANGELES—After years of enduring confused stares and unsolicited mechanical advice at gas stations, local RX-7 owner Arturo “Tito” Mendoza has taken matters into his own hands—by opening the nation’s first rotary-only fuel station.

“I just got tired of the same conversation every time I filled up,” Mendoza said, shaking his head. “Some dude with a stock Camry always has to ask, ‘Bro, why you putting oil in the fuel tank?’ like I don’t know my own car. So now, I don’t have to explain anything. You pull up here, you know what’s up.”

Dubbed Premix Paradise, the station caters exclusively to rotary-powered cars, offering pre-mixed fuel options with various oil ratios, a selection of high-quality two-stroke oils, and a dedicated parking section for “LS swaps” that will make these cars ineligible to return.

Enthusiasts have already begun flocking to the station, relieved to finally fuel up without judgment. “It’s like a safe space for us,” said customer Raul Iglesias, filling up his FC RX-7 while nodding proudly. “No Subaru guys yelling, ‘Your car’s burning oil, bro!’ We KNOW, my guy. That’s the point.”

Not everyone is thrilled about the new business. “I don’t get it,” said longtime local mechanic Tim Dawkins. “They’re just embracing their suffering at this point. A gas station specifically for engines that eat themselves to death? Might as well open a buffet for the morbidly obese.”

Despite the skepticism, Mendoza remains confident. “We’re just getting started,” he said. “Next, I’m adding a waiting lounge with complimentary apex seals and a support group for guys who swore their car was ‘running fine yesterday.’”

As word spreads, Premix Paradise is proving one thing: the rotary community may be misunderstood, but they’re nothing if not committed—literally and financially.
