Additional counterpoint. I daily drove RX-7s for 10 years (not even when they were brand new either) and was never left stranded by one. Yes it’s different. It’s biggest flaw is it requires an owner that understands it. 

Damn, you guys are amazing with this stuff. Kudos.

Dating myself I know but I had both of these front-drivers.

I brought this up with my insurance company recently. They gave me the phone version of the cocked-head dog questioning face.

“We can store these right next to our toilet paper stash!”

I look at gas like alcohol.

There’s a certain time and place where both a real hoot.
Go to the track, go for a fun drive, vroom vroom, etc.
Go to the bar, get some wings, have a few drinks, hang out with friends.

But I wouldn’t want to see exclusively one or the other. For example, I don’t want ALL liquids to be beer.…

These folks.
