Rotary, Mazda is the only company that's persued the technology (for road cars). And there's even a diesel version of it.

It says what it says, it's not my fault you didn't understand.

ah yea. so '/' was 'per' - I somehow mistook it for 'and/or' ('/' stands for 'or' many times, at least in Polish)
Sorry bout that.

get it professionally cleaned (chassis) and painted (body) and covered with some protective stuff (chassis again) and you're fine. For some time anyway.

i'm afraid of the amount of doughs i'll need to pack for this; and how long it'll last. winters are rough.

i'm already having probs with the driver's door and the sunroof, and the AC doesn't work, though the engine is fine. i bought new tires today

if you do it with crap it wont last, but if you use por15 products it will outlast you.

I'm waiting to see increased application of DI (direct injection) on everything from motorcycles to cars. It really is one upgrade with zero drawbacks aside from a slight price increase.

It is sold in Australia...

What exactly is wrong with this car?

Seriously, is there something you people hate about a car that has black wheels and 420 HP?

I don't like such cars.

I like off road vehicles.

The first pic, from the rear, makes it look like a ricer version of the Batmobile.

I think I wrote this a couple years ago; I drive (when I absolutely have to) a Ford Ka. You can't go wrong with a car that was designed by smashing a beer can... or so the story goes.

The Ford Ka was designed for women lol.
