I always think of the analogy of the rx-7 as a marathon runner's heart. Fast, powerful, and strong during it's rime, but atrophied and worn after a short time compared to it's peers. Every time I go to a friend's house, there are two rx-7s in his neighborhood with engine problems that have sat in a driveway for years. Would I want an rx-7 if given to me? Yes, but not the constant rebuilds and procedures on starting and shutting of car to avoid flooding. Ironic to say on a forum that has had it's engine problems as well, but my .02.
