whoever asked about the rotary bit ...
a) first off, I was trolling ... looks like a good har har isn't fun anymore
b) Secondly! ... rotaries are quite impressive, heck after sitting in and driving a couple of rx7's and 8's ... i found them quite nifty ... well in the rx7, yes ... rx8s ... not so much.
my major beef with the rotary is that its like taking care of a vegas-escort ... no matter how much you take care of that sucker it will still shit bricks after a couple of miles ... to be blunt it aint practical for shit, compared to a standard inline 6 and such. I personally liked rotaries up till the 13b-REW ... when teh 13b MSP came out it was like they were trolling.
If i had to choose ... I'd say buy an Rx7 ... use it till it dies ... take out that 13-b ... use it as a paper-weight .... put in a 2JZ-GTE, and you have one hell of a car.
