This makes almost all two-mana instants and sorceries, and all one-mana instants and sorceries effectively free, or result in a mana gain with any creature or land that generates two or more mana. The threat of abuse is extreme.
There are tons of one and two mana spells that are busted with this, imagine Manamorphose for example, costs nothing, gives you two mana, and cantrips.
The land even untaps before the triggering spell resolves, in a control match, you always have the mana to stop the response, even more powerful than Rewind.
I don't think the concept is beyond saving, it's just much too powerful for four mana, gotta jack that cost up some.
Not going to pass muster. Legacy and Vintage wouldn't really mind much, but this definitely combo bait for modern. No rarity listed, but I'd guessing rare at the least.
Should cost more, and/or remove the untap ability.

Instant and sorcery spells you cast cost 1 less to cast.
Whenever you cast an instant or sorcery spell, you may untap target creature or land.
