[QUOTE="vladd, post: 1314751, member: 563071"] i agree the rotaries were one of the best engines ever, but only because of their uniqueness (if thats even a word), i definately wouldn't have one for a daily car though. They can be reliable, but most people don't know enough about them to keep them up. Note by reliable we have to remember the RX-7s were 80s cars, how many miles did any 80's car get on it? you don't see many around for a reason. I do adore the grand national, mean car with tons of potential, only problem is the people that own them and know what they are hold on to them like crazy, if you find one for sale its usually not worth buying. Buttt on the note of an $8k car, i say go with something late 90's, maybe even 2000. If you're wanting transportation i hate to admit how reliable hondas are. I'd stray away from forced induction, especially if you want low maintenance costs, just like the rotary engine, someone that drives the piss out of a turbo car and doesn't change oil regularly takes a car that could be perfectly reliable and blows the turbo by 90k.
