it also have to depend on how you modify your engine, bro. Not all RX7 / RX8 are with high fuel consumption.

Re: is it a daily car?

Why not? If you have a correct setup (reduce the fuel at idling by use an aftermarket ECU or SAFC will do, or get a 99 spec engine and wiring) and better cooling system (upgrade your cooling system eg. aluminium 2 core radiator, mod your fan speed relay, drill some holes on your thermostat) etc...

I drive my Zoom-Zoom everyday to work.
And at the end of the day, I give it a hug.

It's hard to explain to non-rotary owner the joy of owning and driving a rotary engine sports car.

For me, I felt my wish came true when the car dealer handed over the keys to me. The video below best explains my feeling
