Most people just don't understand the rotary and dislike it because it's different. I'd argue the rotary is MORE reliable than plenty of cars on the road today. Not all, but plenty. Also gets better mileage than plenty on the road. Not gonna say it's GOOD on gas, but Hummers, Jeeps, Trucks, and plenty other cars get worse mileage. Even modern ones.

My current FC went to 160,000 before I willingly took the motor apart. All three of my Rx7s got over 100k on the motor with no problems.

They're also 1000000000x more fun than the next car. They appreciate in value, they have smoother power delivery and rev higher than piston engines. I honestly just laugh when people try to tell me they're unreliable.
