When I was in high school, I babied an '87 RX-7 Sport through NY winters and hot summers, because the car was just so brilliant. It sucked gas and flooded like New Orleans, but it was just so nice to drive something different.
I've only had my Impreza for a little over a week (thanks for the advice!) but today I was given a very, VERY nice job offer by a company to start just before I graduate. My salary is basically going to double, and i'm thinking about celebrating by getting the car I always wanted. A Mazda RX-8.
Enough with all the rhetoric, is a Mazda RX-8 really as bad as everyone likes to say? I can deal with pulling the EGI fuse once in awhile if it floods, and checking my oil religiously. I like the rotary engine, I like things that are different. But my huge fear is that I will end up putting 61,001 miles on it, and end up replacing an engine that is no longer under warranty, and still subject to monthly payments.
Anyone with first hand experience?
