my ex-gf had one and I spent a good amount of time driving it.
in short, I really really liked the car. handled superbly, built solidly, looked good and 9k rpm is fun. the powerband is surprisingly linear and I didnt miss the lack of torque.
only real complaint for me was lack of headroom with the sunroof/power seats.
the back seat will actually fit humans if you want, but the trunk is small.
i would really like one as a daily driver, were it not for the poor gas mileage. the rotary goes through a little bit of oil, but there is an oil level indicator that tells you when to top it off.
