I was a V8 person at first. However, I learned rotaries and pistons at the same time. I saw for myself which was the better design. These days, none of my vehicles have pistons in them, except for in the brakes lol.

yeah, i can do piston engines but the rotary is so much better. for any car i drive i'd mush rather have a rotary over a piston motor.

Ok, I apologize as it seems that i'm going to hijack my own thread. But most of you recomended against getting a Prelude as a daily driver and getting an FC instead. I thought over this issue earlier and decided to get a Prelude instead. Honda reliability as well as a 2+2 design. Where the FC is plagued by little electrical gremlins and has the problem of being at least 12+ years old. Also earlier i decided that if i was ever to get an FC again i'd get a Turbo II. Anyways i'm a bit confused again and i'm sorry if i seem to keep going around in a circle but 4k is a lot to spend on a car.

well hondas are reliable if you leave em alone, but its easier to fix a rottary vs a piston; cheaper too honda wants over $2000 for a rebuilt cylinder head

What about a 1g GSX? Are those any good? And as for the MK III Supra I considered those but outside of getting a Turbo II I kinda wanna stay outside of a mid late 80s car with their horrible interior.
