The Toybaru is not as reliable as a Toyota Camry or Subaru Imprezza. On the contrary, the Toybaru has probably the worst in reliability of all current Toyota and Subaru models.

Do you only drive the Toybaru 9,000 miles a year and 99% on highway, or going to weekend races 52 times a year?

How much is the extended warranty and what coverage?

Do you drive a manual or automatic transmission? (The manual transmission tends to have more problems.)

Answer to the three questions above may yield different conclusions. Therefore, the right answer may be different for different people.

If you drive the Toybaru really hard, you may want to see if there is a cheap and good extended warranty available.
