Lol what currency? I think you're talk'in US$ so I gather that to be ok (don't want to consider fake inflation stuff of economics). Yes the Rotary engine has those wearing seals on the tips of the rotors but it's a nice handling machine.

And $4k for a BMW 2002 Tii? That's so stupidly expensive now, over $40k dully restored and $90k for a 2002 Turbo variant. The parts like the Euro-spec bumpers are worth over $3k now on Ebay.

How much is a fully restored (or clean orginal) 1972 RX3's Rotary engine worth? I gather that would cost over $10k now.

I'd rather go for a very cheap to buy and maintain Datsun 280Z cause that is cheaper than most classics.
