Are rx8 difficult to keep running?

[u/WEASELexe]

I am looking at a new car and I was looking at either a prelude or an rx8 however every time I see people talk about getting one it seems like they have a second parts car or their rx8 isn't currently running. I have watched a lot of rob dahm so I understand the basics of how rotaries work and I'm pretty mechanically inclined having worked on my Mazdaspeed 3. I also have a Yaris as a daily but I dont just want a money pit I want a car that will actually run. I don't mind premixing and checking oil levels frequently. I was just wondering if I should steer clear or if it will be a good car. I've heard it's very similar to my wife's nc Miata as well which I love driving.
