Message though which scares me away. They love their cars, but within 80K they've typically gone through 2 engines, 2 sets of turbos, at least 1 and 1/2 interiors (I guess they fall apart or something?) and various other problems (squeaks seem to be high up on the list ... I hate squeaks!!). :) I think they look sweet though ... sort of like oversized go-carts. Heck, it weighs just over 2600 lbs ... almost 1000 less than a loaded Z. Too bad the rotary engine technology was never pushed much beyond those cars ... a 5 second 0-60 out of little more than two and a half liters is pretty impressive if you ask me.

the rotary engine:

and all the go-cart pieces:

I know it's not a Z, but come on car lovers, this is a good looking if not tiny car! :) (I like my Z)
