Are you going to buy? Unless you prioritize sublime handling dynamics, most folks will rather have a lot of horses and torques.

Sad day for rotary fans.

Torque for sure, but the thought of horsies subsides after some time behind the wheel. Loved my 8, literally touched every piece of that car (minus internals) as I made my modding journey. Still miss that rotary feel and "redline a day" driving

Dang, didn't even know. My FD has been down for 2 years and I miss driving and revving to 9k with no sweat. Doing a full wide-body and single turbo.
