Make sure you do a carfax on the car prior to buying it, A lot of the first year cars had a cooling system leak, causing the motors to be changed. Go through the car very well, as you do not want to end up with a lemon. Other thing is, if you have never owned a rotary before, make sure you follow the scheduled maint. Rotaries use oil due to the oil injection system, if you skip an oil change or 2, you might be replacing a motor. They dont leak it, they burn it on purpose.
