You are going to catch hell for this, not from me though.

Consider the Subaru SVX, it only came in an auto and IMO the auto was appropriate for that car. It still went like stink with the auto, and was a very fun car to dirve.

I’d like to see some statistics on sucessfull rebuilds of two rotor mazda RX-7 and RX-8 motors, I bet its in the low double digits like 30%. The motors are not disposable but not nearly as friendly to a refurbish as a piston engine.

It’s like I’m torn between two sides on this. It is so damn cool, and awesome and everyting but it would be an absolute pain in the ass to maintain. You would have to find Henry Wankle’s great grandson to rebuild the motor every 30k.

I would run my Mazda 3 or codrive the Z. I hate the summer tires I have for the mazda so a couple of auto crosses is all it will take to do them in.

Yes, they run at Costco, and at a lot up in Ronan. Helena runs at the national guard airport and at the MDOT/Montana Highway Patrol parking lot. Helena is the best, usually a 2 day event and they don’t keep the speeds down with cones. I’ve seen nearly 100 mph in the Z in helena.

Ouch, he got punched in the HANS.

I’d do an autocross in Missoula or Helena might even talk my dad into bring out ZRMIN8R.

I had the CVC Comps, the same skis Glenn Plake skiied. They were 2x4’s with steel edges. They sucked.

My suggestion: “it seems the only way I’ll generate a return on my initial investment is to go all in and make the most stellar example of a Rotary Motor Porsche 944 Turbo, ever.”

80’s bewbs.

That’s so HOT!

Mordor?

Hey man, don’t rock the Jukebox.

My hope is that selling the gold one will lead to a white one again. But alas, that will probably never happen.

Think on this for a while and all it’s implications.

My story: rear hatch strut pulls out of frame on Subaru Impreza. Take it to dealer for warranty repair (car is under bumper to bumper warranty). Dealer says no go it is a fastener and fasteners are not under warranty (wtf?). Calls Subaru of America and bitches. Head service dude at dealer calls me next day, apologizes…

There, fixed the title.

I went to Ohio once. The sun never shown and we ate 7 different kinds of jello “salad”. Drove my uncle’s 24valve ford taurus, fit right in.

Subaru may have the worst warranty in the car industry right now. I have the PZEV so at least anything to do with emissions is under warranty for 100k.
