@@nextleveljourney6612 The TC looked like a loaf of bread on wheels. It's body had absolutely no curve appeal or character so I would be hesitant to believe it's the aesthetic progeny of the Celica. It may have had the same engine, drive train etc as the Celica (I don't know what the TC's had in them), but then, so did the Corolla and others. I've even bought Yaris parts to replace parts on my Celica, and I recently replaced my oem 1zz engine, with a 1zz from a Corolla. So, if Toyota just mix and matches it's library of parts to build their makes and models as they do (which I've discovered through experience) Then my thinking is that the Celica (at least the GT) is mostly about sporty aesthetics more than being the sum of it's constituent parts. The TC looked like a two door loaf of bread. There was nothing sporty looking about it. Now, the GTS Celica had a 2zz Yamaha engine which was a little better than its 1zz counterpart and that engine was also used in the Lotus Evora. So that Celica was sportier, but even with that, the drive train was largely the same except the GTS had rear brake calipurs and rotors.

One of the main reasons I settled on this vehicle was because they are made in Japan. You cannot get better, more consistent build quality or reliability than this. It is such a huge factor when you understand the difference between their cultural mindset regarding individual workmanship standards VS the entitled, North American union employee workers' mindset (even if its' from Toyota), and an abused, third world slave laborer's mindset. Expect excellent reliability, with very little maintenance. Averaging only 4500 miles, 7000 km a year on my daily commute through steep hilly terrain with the odd road trip, I just need an oil change once a year. Had to get the 2018 CX-5 when another driver ran a stop sign and my 2014 CX-5 was written off (still drove perfectly fine after the accident). With the 2014 CX-5, at only 48000 miles (77000 km), I've only ever had to replace the brakes (less than a month before it was written off).

I've noticed it only happens when the owner isn't maintaining service on the vehicle and sadly it's mostly young people. Please make sure you do your maintenance in time or as soon as possible, it can prevent accidents and it can prevent you from buying a new motor, transmission or another car

For both S1 and S2 RX8s though, they're cars that are meant to be loved by their owners, and as such need owners that love them and care for them. The number of RX8s on the market that aren't neglected by their owners seem to keep getting rarer and rarer these days.

You forgot to mention big problems with oil burning on Toyota models from roughly 2007 to 2011. Probably too old for most people to buy, but it is a big problem. My 2010 Prius burns oil like crazy, has done so since 150,000 miles (now has 220,000). Smog compenants are starting to fail because of soot buildup. Still Toyota is my favorite brand, just something to watch out for.

Turbo's almost always start leaking oil when they age. My 2009 Mazdaspeed 3 did around 90-100k miles. I kept toping off, but was putting off replacing until I finally let it go to long and oil starved the top of the engine. Rule of thumb with any turbo car: losing oil? Check turbo and plan on replacing! The Skyactiv NA's will probably go for a long time. My wife's 2014 CX-5 is still going strong at 82k miles.
