rotary is designed to burn oil and if catless it will have a pretty smelly dark exhaust. what do you mean by compression is neg? cant pin this down without more info. can you post a video? a pic of the engine will tell us if its on 05 or 06 because the 04/05 had a 4 port motor with the auto trans, the 06+autos had a 6 port motor
can you check if theres a cat? if its there and not a mid pipe can you disconnect it to make sure its not knocked out? again that will cause a much darker exhaust and it will smell. however with the high miles you should really have gotten a comp test. it could be oil control rings but thats not as common
