Meet the Jekyll and Hyde RX-8. The rotary-engined coupé has left owners running hot and cold with gushing praise, followed by frustrated ranting. You voted the RX-8 into the top 10 in four categories, and are delighted about the way it drives. But this comes at a cost. In fact, you tell us it's the worst car in the top 100 for big bills. Its the unique engine that's to blame, with crippling fuel economy matched by a need for regular oil top-ups. Still, 96 per cent said the car had lived up to expectations.
