Purchasing an RX-8 NEW...
Will I go wrong with purchasing a New RX-8??
If I follow the basic Rotary engine car, i.e. Check Oil levels regularly and Warm engine up propery before driving and NEVER shut down a cold engine. Will this prove a reliable car?
Is the rotary engine great? if those above steps are adhered to
Serious answers only please!
As I am really wanting an RX8 but the problems first models have encountered scare me. Should I be worried, Or just GO for it??
Thanks

Nice to see your keeping tabs on what I post lol, That was a serious question, obviously I can't get a serious answer. You were joking....right?
How long have you had your RX-8 for?

Instead of just getting limited opinions, go to truedelta.com or other sites that compile reliability data on cars. My research tells me that the car had problems in 2004-05, the first two model years. The RX-8's reliability since then has been fine and should be even better with the changes in 2009. Reliability would not be a reason for me not to buy an RX-8. But do your own research and draw your own conclusions

I have about 69,5xx miles on it right now and I've never had a problem with the engine. I did have to replace the clutch, and normal things like brakes and tires (which you have to replace on all cars.) But if you're buying used, make sure you get a compression test, ask for car fax, history records to make sure the previous owner/owners maintained the engine.
