I am buying a 2009 Elise.
1) The engine is Toyota.
2) The transmission is Toyota.
3) Does this mean that the clutch is also Toyota? I am assuming yes.
4) Is anything else Toyota made?
I had a 1984 Toyota Corolla that went 413,000 km (250,000 miles) on the original engine, transmission and clutch. Many people don't believe me but I was the sole owner of the car so I should know.
I am now driving my wife's 1986 Toyota Tercel that has gone 300,000 km on the original engine, transmission and clutch. Engine burns a bit of oil and the transmission pops out of 2nd gear from time to time but the clutch is fine. Feels like it will last another 50,000 km easily.
