Someone told me that if you had to replace the clutch in this car you would have to pull the motor out. The Toyota dealer said this was a good car to get and get rid of. What gives?

those can be total rust buckets... i'd be worried about the bodykit pieces falling off as the rust starts around the holes on the exterior where the body kit attaches to. but otherwise not hard to maintain mechanically and are very reliable. i had a st164 as my first car and got me through 4 years of ownership without major issues. they are quite luxurious for an 80's car too.. everything is electronic. the only thing i really hated about it is the long throw shifting.
