Hey guys. I've been trolling this forum for some time now, and am really excited to see toyota in one form or another (Scion) get back in the sports-coupe game. I have always loved toyotas but I also love my coupes and aside from the tC (not a fan at all) toyota has nothing, so they haven't been on my radar for years.

After hearing about the qualities this new car should possess, I'm pretty much on board for when it debuts. My biggest concern right now is the issue of reliability when a brand new car comes on the market. Historically, many cars that are brand new models seem to have alot of problems that have not been worked out because they are the first models of that car.

I know that Toyota is about high quality, although in recent years I feel all Japanese cars have lost some of their quality, but it still makes me nervous that this brand new model will have some first-year quirks that may make owning it a PITA. Does anyone else share my concerns? Any reassurances that this car will be fine are gladly accepted haha

Discuss fellas :happy0180:
