But who's to say this ft86club reflects ALL the cars as a whole. Hopefully this is just a very small percentage which is to be expected with any sort of car.
My car has a build date of May 2013. Definitely later in the production run. Hopefully all is well. I'm still very optimistic though. I do have faith in that I bought a very reliable car. Let's see how these cars go within the next five years. I'm hoping all I ever have to do is change fluids and plugs. I don't plan to modify the engine till the car is paid off and out of warranty.

My car was built in Jan 2013 and no crickets. They have changed the fuel pump design for the later cars and are updating the older ones. I have run Petro 94, 91, Shell 91, Pioneer 91, and Canadian Tire 91 with no issues on any. I wouldn't worry too much about it. The only issue on my car that I may have is the tranny. Clutch to the floor, 3rd doesn't always engage. Thought at first it was cause I'm fairly new with stick shift, but more people have started to notice the issue. All of the other issues noted though seem to be fixed by my build date, so yours should be good too.
Just drive the car and all your worries will fade away.
