The Evo X is like GR STI. Not as desirable as the previous gen. Maintenance is expensive on those things too. 4G63 > 4B11

V12 merc w/45k kms for under $20k? 1994 Mercedes-Benz SL 600 V12 Roadster (Supercar)
i almost never see these on the road. maybe it's because no one can afford the fuel and the cost to fix them so they are always parked? 
not sure about the "supercar" claim, but that engine... how do you work on it?

or just check out Pelican for some DIYs http://www.pelicanparts.com/techarti...-W129-R129.htm

The 4B11 is making really good progress in the tuner world and is a very solid and reliable engine. But yes, it doesn't have the track record of a 4G63.
As for the maintenance cost, it's an Evo. It sees the garage 3x more than a BMW for maintenance because of much shorter intervals, but a BMW sees the repair shop more often.
This is coming from a guy who lived with both cars lol

Engine replaced 8,000 km ago so must be pretty recent? I didn't know warranty ran for that long. Seems like a terrible business to warranty a rotary engine for that long...

These cars make a trabant look like an engineering marvel.
That e30 m3 makes me cry. Its well done, and seems very well thought out, but its just one less I may be able to buy one day. I really want to be able to experience e30 m3 ownership as someone did back when I was 2 years old got to.
