They are losing their fucking minds.
Shitty time to have to buy a Mazda Miata. But we’re going to need you to go ahead and get one purchased.
You will be required to do an engine swap at 36. You will take out the sensible 4 cylinder engine and attempt to cram a straight 6 under the hood. The car will sit in pieces in your garage for years before you eventually sell it for parts when your spouse buys a storage system for their garden tools that will need to go in that space.
Ha, that was my dream car when I was 16! Or an RX7, I think it was called.
The American rotary was/is the RX8. RX7 was banned in the US because it had a left hand drive and emissions regulations. But you might still be able to find one or two floating around
The rotary is kinda cool but there’s not many mechanics that can work on them. So the Miata is probably the smarter choice.
