but I love that yellowbird
I've had 4 rotary engines and 2 rx7s. 1 carbon locked when the car was 1 month old, one popped a coolant line and overheated and died, the last one I replaced lasted 180,000 miles and I only replaced it to put in a 13b. i'll keep replacing the engines for as long as the rest of this car will last. They're cheap.

I spent a bunch of time this fall looking for a track car and drove quite a few 944s. I just love that car. The chassis and steering are sooo much more intimate than even the Boxster, no wonder that car is so well regarded. S2s are tough to find though.
