thats cool you wanting a rotary for your first car. and its true rotary's can break down a lot. But a lot of that is how you drive the car. yeah the parts can get spendy, and the labor costs. Thats why most of us have learned to work on our cars.



With you living in Australia. I would think you would want an RX2,3,4
