I kind of get the idea, from this forum at least, that most folks have dependability "challenges" because they have messed with the car.
However, the only thing I know for sure is that my FR-S has been trouble free for the last 2 years and 15,000 miles ....

ive never tracked my vehicle or any real mods (drop in filter lol) and ive seen a fair share of problems already
ive had this car since 2012 June and I still remember all the silly shenanigans ..
from missing grommets,annoying weather strips visible on our windows, rusting between the black accent (between the glass) and the metal, leaky seals in lights (replaced in warranty), crickets (now deemed normal?), coolant evaporating, gears grinding tranny (ive had mine replaced warranty at 15k), and now im gettin ignition coils at high rpm shifts 6-7k at 37k miles. etc
not to mention the horror stories like steering wheel losing power while driving on the freeways, blown motors (granted Many are from FI, a few were still NA), bad rods, etc. :/
but its still an interesting car .. i have a hard time seeing my car go beyond 150k miles
