However, Toyota doesn’t really have anything in the Corvette/Porsche911/BMW M4/Mercedes AMG class.  I don’t know what these companies build that is in the Camry class, which is Toyota’s low repair cost champion.

Why does a car need a computer?  Will it run without it?  Let it go.

I have had terrific luck with my Town Car, which brings up a question.  If one does not buy cars new, but rather about 4 to 6 years old, how do you compare them then?  The magazines only compare new cars.  But the Towner used is better than most competitors used, both in cost and maintenance costs.

 

When comparing cars, there are far too many imponderables.
