Question Need some info on rotary engine

Hi everyone,

I'm looking to buy a gen3 rx-7 sometime in between dec 02 - april 03, but many people have told me that the rotary engine is unreliable. Can anyone give me their opinions on this? I really like the car, but I want to know as much as i can about the car b4 i get it. thanks for the help.

and if anyone in the nj/nyc area plans on selling a gen3 rx-7 (stock) sometime near april, please let me know too.

Do a search and you will find your answers about reliability. The search button is in the top right of this page ^

As far as learning about the engine, look here: www.howstuffworks.com under the automotive section.
