In addition to the fact these cars are 11-14 years old, and need maintenance anyway, many of these cars have been improperly maintained by people who couldn't afford to do so (or thought they could do so themselves and ghetto-rigged a bunch of repairs). This is a high-end sports car with many subsystems designed for performance/light weight, not long-term reliability.

This is not a car for the casual owner, it is a car for a dedicated enthusiast with stable finances. Despite these facts, a large percentage of the current ownership does not meet these criteria, and you end up with the poorly maintained examples I mentioned above.

Judging by the SEVERAL redundant threads you have started in the last few days and your short-term ownership plans, I would say that this is not the car for you. Get something else.

 

you still havent answered the question yet. how much do you know about rotaries?

 

heh...thats what i thought...

 

Stop being a wussy..

If you like the car.. get it..


The FD3S with some love and knowledge is the best sports
car you can buy LESS THAN 80K PERIOD.. thats including the
ZO6 C6. For its price I could build a 500rwhp FD and buy a used C5.
