It hits on all cylinders.

*It's a pun...........you Wankels*

*That was a pun, too* :lol:

But seriously, it's a well-balanced, decent sports car that has problems meeting vehicle emissions standards. Fairly reliable, but parts will be a bit of a pain to find. I like the suicide doors, but some don't. Overall.........it's different in a good way.

Those Wankels are a bitch to service too.

Ya, they should be the easiest, but since nobody really has any experience on them.............they're not.

Actually, for what you're getting, the RX-8 is priced quite competitively. It's one of the reasons that the RX-7 was so popular on the international racing scene. Decent power to weight ratio and it's easier to balance as the engine is almost central. Not for me, but a decently designed car nonetheless.

Usually, I only try to sell people on products that I would purchase myself. That's not always the case, but it often is. It's a decent car for it's price range. If you don't care about reliability or the cost involved in fixing it, that is.

Nobody seems to care about the reliability of Ferrais. Everybody seems to care about the reliability of their Taurus. The RX-8 is your vehicle that toes the line in between those 2 extremes.

That and I think the Wankel engine is pretty cool.

I agree the Wankel engine is very cool, that is the only reason that I gave the car too looks.
