Default OS .30 rotary engine thoughts and question

Ive been debating on getting the O.S. 49-PI Type II 30 Wankel Rotary engine for one of my twin engine planes. My question to everyone is, does anyone out there have one and what are your thoughts on it. It looks to be a good motor but my god, 450$ for it is quite a hefty price if you ask me. I always pride myself on having rc stuff that no one at my club owns and this might be an addition to my collection but I have reservations as to how well this engine runs and starts being that it is quite expensive. Thoughts anyone?
