Yes, Wooden, but those are all non-drivetrain issues. 
Much as I love my CSVT, I would definately buy a Honda (if they weren't all so ugly now). We had a lowered one come into the shop once... this girl had knocked her drain plug loose, and the car had practically no oil in it. Damn thing still ran.
'Course, I still think Toyota is the master of bullet-proof engine building. After all, they retail to senior citizens (not always the best at maintainence) and people like my mom (DEFINATELY not the best at maintainence). Plus, there's a reason that damn 2J Supra engine is so popular.
I also agree about the toyota engines. Car and Driver put toyota in the top 5 for best engines in the world, I think they were number 2 or 3.. I remember they were one space behind BMW. Around here you almost NEVER see a toyota for sale with less then 100K miles. People just dont ever want to get rid of them.
