I don't understand this line of thinking....

Subaru parts bin and Subaru built and all of a sudden because Toyota was involved in some way its going to be Toyota reliable?

It was the same thing with the Supra....Toyota somehow got involved with reengineering the existing BMW parts bin stuff that is used and somehow it'll become Toyota reliable instead of BMW hit or miss?

Toyota did not re-engineer their partners components and made them more reliable...…

The Subaru BRZ/86 is Subaru reliable (which in itself is pretty reliable)
And the Supra is BMW reliable (which I think for the current generation of product is pretty reliable)
