RX-7's because of the turbos, tend to have heating problems and blow apex seals very easily. If you want to talk rotaries, feel free to PM me anytime, I can give you a detailed history of them.

Rep Power: 308 Tell him to get the RX-8.
Too many people have the RSX, and the STI is too ugly.
I would suggest s2k, but the price is too high, so RX-8 hands down.

Rep Power: 0 Im really in no rush to get a car since I already have one.. Its a 1991 Mustang 5.0 with 47k original miles. I got some mods. But im still interested in another car since my stang waste's alot..ALOT of gas. My friend (PennyKnotOff) Has a stang and civic too so I tought Id try that too.... Thats why I came to you guys. I see you guys helped me out alot and I appreciate that.. I just want something that looks nice...is fast and reliable. So far that RSX type S got my eye. The RX-8 did also since Ford makes em 
..... and looks nice with the import look. The STI is out of reach since I checked for Insurance and its REALLY expencive. 
I will keep on searching..

Under what grounds do you have to make this statement? Other than "it sucks."

the only thing i can figure for myself as to how this statement would make sense is im kinda dissapointed that the compression is so high that it makes it a PITA to run even semi large boost levels.... i personally think hes just another hater and you shouldnt give him the time of day nookie

i think he was talkin to acurawerx. But back to the topic. I think your on the right idea with the Type-S. I'm guessing your mustang is going to be your hp monster. So if you want a car that has decent power and good mileage i would get a 05 Type-S. My friend has one and she gets 26-30mpg on it with 5k on the car.
