| Rx 8 Or Celica
Hi , i wanna buy a manual sport car for weekend use . I am confuse to choose whether Rx8 or Toyota Celica.
i prefer rx8 much , but compare to maintanance . i always heard that rx8 got plenty of problem .
and celica is very easy to maintain . OF course if i buy rx8 i will buy the cheapest 2002 years car .10 years rotary engine . i always go long distance place . IS it many problem ? Hopefully some Sifu here get give me a clear comment .

| Re: Rx 8 Or Celica Rx8 hands down. Celica can be barely called a sports car.. I assume you referring the last model FF with a NA lump. It's a hairdresser's car at best.

And the revs omg... It spins like a washing machine. And I'm also curious to get a feel or rotary engine. Just that the downside is on maintenance and fuel costs la...
