Reliability?

I'm thinking about getting a 2002 Lancer OZ Rally or a Toyota Corolla Sport. I'm concerned about the reliability of the Mitsubishi as compared to Toytota.

Any thoughts from those that own one?

I tried to find something like Consumer Reports Europe (or something) since the Lancer has been out over there for quite some time, but couldn't find anything.

Thanks all,

Stephen

I'm a big fan of the Protege 5. If I hadn't gotten my Lancer I'd be driving one right now.

Anyway...you can't go wrong with either car really. No across the board issues with reliability, but the car's only been out about 10 mos. Corolla's redesigned more or less, but I can't see there being any more/less reliability issues that are known as of yet for the 2002 MY. Flip a coin? Seriously though, it's just a matter of preference.
