I understand your point and agree with you on some of it. But i think you went too far in calling it a "Failure in engineering". Maybe if these motors were only lasting about 30k miles you might be right, but i have see many N/A Rotary's well over 200k miles and going strong. And remember just how much R&D the piston engine has compared to the little rotary.

But imo you cant beat the sound of a v8.
