I had a very small oil leak from the passenger-side cam tower that was discovered and fixed during my 20K mile service. Other than that, absolutely no problems - and I track and autocross the car extensively.

I think if you were to go down to any dealer that sells what are universally recognized as high-quality cars (Lexus, BMW, Honda, whatever) you'll find the same kind of thing... these are mechanical things designed by humans, both of which are well known to be fallible. As a percentage of total numbers of cars delivered, I don't think what you're reading on here is beyond the norm for any quality automobile maker, and probably less than most.

Not to sell the problems, or the people who have experienced them short - if it happens to you, it's a bummer - but spend some time on here reading about how much people like their cars, too. don't spend all your time reading the gloom and doom...
