The gas mileage and oil consumption tends to throw off a lot of people though. Which is why I said no.

It is reliable and practical enough for me. Somebody once asked me if a first gen Rx-7 makes a good DD. I said, well, not really, they get bad gas mileage, but I DD mine so it can get the job done. It's my only car, but I still tell people it's both my project and my DD,because I can't afford 2 cars,and I throw DD out there to try and shed off the "rotaries are unreliable" myths.

And I say the same thing about my mudstain.

The irony of the whole discussion is the guys who are actually defending the fact that an only car is a daily driver, are the only ones ACTUALLY thinking about it lol

is it ironic that you're insinuating people are dumb because you haven't seen a single supporting argument for this yet the supporting argument is in the original post that got your panties all toasty?

I was insinuating no such thing. I don't think there's any need for name calling in this discussion. I just find it funny that the one group of people (yourself included) that HAVE decided to call people names that question their intelligence, are the ones that don't seem to know how a debate works.
