Go down to the "Vehicle Description" which is below the first Big picture, and the small pictures you can click to enlarge right under the big one.

Read what they say about the gas mileage (its the 3rd piece of info in the "vehicle description" section) , and post away.

which gets extremely great gas mileage!

LMAO, well maybe compared to a Porsche 911 turbo....mmm nope about the same lol

Pricing is WAYYYYYYYYY too high! But yea.. that kind of price tag has to have some BS backing it.

RotaryManiac 09-20-2005 06:00 PM

I'd say it does get great gas mileage compared to a hummer h2 though. :p

I don't see what you guys are on about. I hear the 4-cyl RX-8 gets great mileage. ;)

Am I the only one that's noticed that it's a Shinka, for $24K (no reserve either)... for a 2005 with 8K miles? Maybe *I'm* nuts, but that sounds like a great price.

REMillers 09-21-2005 01:56 AM

Ya really not a bad price even though it is auto :(

KYLiquid 09-21-2005 02:32 PM

If he is comparing it to past rotary cars, then yes it does get great miliage, (EPA vs EPA raiting)

Once again....

EBAY has no rotary engine option.

AT Shinka?
Didn't know that was an option...

That's just wrong! <LOL>

yea, i knew it was a shinka, but the dealership failed to mention that to the customer. Sad that its an auto though.

That doesn't make it any less funny. Note that they made NO attempt to call attention to the problem. If I were selling a rotary somewhere where they forced me to list a wrong number of cylinders, you better believe that I'd find somewhere to put, in big letters, "NO, it's NOT a 4-cylinder, it's a rotary engine, but this fool site doesn't let you specify that." As they have it, the casual reader WILL think its a 4-banger.
