The RX-8 is also a very thirsty beast (13mpg is pretty common), and rotaries are more expensive to fix because they are unlike conventional engines and not all shops can fix em. I'd doubt RX-8 insurance would be cheap either because of it's sports car profile, ICBC probably puts it into a more expensive bracket.
Just something to think about before you dive for these cars.
