Okay one I'm super jealous about the E-type because holy poo poo Also yeah, the Renesis is a bad™ motor, but "has dorito" isn't my sole qualification for ownership, just one of them. I also won't buy anything rotary with 4 doors unless it's a wagon  But then again I'm a giant manchild that lusts solely after '70s Mazdas and my rich man dream garage just has a shitload of motorcycles along with an RX-2, RX-3, RX-4 (already bought this one  ), and a REPU.

Slim Pickens posted:*breaks own hand trying to change spark plugs* Subarus come with full size spares. They might be narrow, but the height matches. By 100k miles, you should already have changed the coolant once. And thermostats are cheap. Also, that poo poo happens regardless of manufacturer. You should be replacing spark plugs through the wheel well, not fighting from the top. This is kinda common. Also, they switched from timing belts to chains a few years back. Now the only reason to go digging around deep under a subaru hood is the occasional head gasket.

That's actually the previous generation Luce, rather than the RX-4 sold in America in the '70s. This is mine:  And holy poo poo, is it ever easy to work on. Everything in the interior is either metal or that super awesome '70s plastic that's tough as poo poo, and everything's put in easy to reach places; the oil filter is mounted vertically on top of the engine so oil changes are the easiest thing imaginable. Plus, those round chrome accents on the C pillar are actually exhaust for the blow-through ventilation system. The best thing about old cars? Interior color options. Interior colors that aren't gray, black, or tan are seriously the poo poo. My Mazda's is two-tone sage and forest green

Papa Butts instilled a large hatred for GM and Chrysler in me, especially after the bailout. That happened right after my parents lost their house in the mortgage crash. idk if i can ever buy another one again

Is it in more recent model years that people can't get to the spark plugs? It's a little awkward, but they're quite accessible the normal way in the last two I've had, but those were both '02 Imprezas (2.5TS and WRX).
