Curious: who would buy a new RX7?

OnCallZ · 04-16-2009, 04:43 PM

I've driven a rotary for a month, long story short - I got tired of having to rev up to 7k just to get on to the interstate, in addition to the horrific gas mileage, the engine had major leaks (well at least in the early models)
If I am paying for the gas millage of a gallardo and getting acceleration of a civic, something is wrong.

I don't see a future in rotary gasoline engines, sorry if I offended any rotary supporters
