I'm just saying, this is a relatively moot argument. Power to weight ratio is a more accurate measurement for performance.

Normal ==not $300k.
Comparing HP/liter between the rotary is inevitably misleading as well.
Nobody said it is the best measure for performance, it's just a pretty impressive feat that we will likely never see again in a sub-$100k car.
