Guys I wanna buy an rx-8 because I've fallen in love with

the last thing you'll be worrying about with the Dorito engine is the mpgs

Buy one and love the shit out of it.

Avoid 2004-2008 models, they have so many problems. They need better cooling if you're going to hoon them. The renesis is by far less reliable than the 13b in the rx7. The 04-08 is missing the central oil injector, the coil pack is shit from the factory, the catalytic converter traps heat and can push heat back into the engine if it fails or starts to fail and rotaries don't deal with heat well. 04-05 have weak starters that can lead to engine flooding. The coil pack and sparks must be replaced every 30k miles, even more frequently if it's tracked

Here's all the info you need, avoid series 1. http://www.rx8club.com/new-member-forum-197/new-potential-owners-start-here-202454/

>I've fallen in love with its ass
When you test out a car can you please use a creepy voice to say things about its ass?

>babe, I want to take your ass

>Uh, what?

>I wasn't talking to you

Honestly I love these cars too OP, but you are almost guaranteed to have these engines break on you.

If you were going to buy one, buy one that had a new a rebuilt engine done to it fairly recently with paperwork to prove it.

It's a feature, not a bug.

In all seriousness look at how much car you get for the prices these things are going for. Dealing with the motor isn't that big of a deal if you like wrenching.

Only if you're retarded enough to wear a helmet all day

Learn to change oil and spark plugs, and to spend a 20 seconds pouring 2 stroke oil down the gas tank
Have fun

Do what everyone else does. Buy it, own it for a few months, sell it once the novelty wears off.
