Message: [QUOTE="intlzncster, post: 2264363, member: 56"] I too wonder about this. I'm coming from the perspective of a guy who owned a 93 Toyota Corolla up until last year, and did all the work on it himself. It still runs fine. Best car I've ever seen. When I did research on the CX-5 (I keep mentioning it because that's the one I know the most about), I was sold on future durability. These aren't remotely the same engines as the Turbo of old, even semi recently. Whether that plays out in actuality remains to be seen. Honestly, I'm a little more concerned about the electronics holding up over time than the engine itself. Computers are computers and can degrade from the strain of heavy use; these cars rely so heavily on them. And that ain't be a cheap repair either. Nor is it as simple as heading down to your local mechanic. [/QUOTE]
