I agree with Woody.

A friend with a BMW asked me about the reliability of my 986S.
I said. "I'll tell you in ten years".

I drove a Jeep CJ5 for 24 years. I remember changing out a fuel pump, 2 starters, and alternator over that time period. Each item cost less than $40.00 and took less than a half hour to change. I can't say that anymore.
