Consumer Reports only gives the TC an overall average rating.
Engine (major, minor, cooling), Trans (maj, min), Drivetrain, Brakes and Exhaust do all score much better or better than average.
Climate System, Audio, Body Hardware and Power Equipment are on the lower end.
Granted, engines capable of putting hundred's of thousands of miles of city driving are quite enviable for their use, but most modern cars can do the same.
I think all you "experts" on these cars are over-romanticizing these pieces of old iron. There just isn't much else out there to take their place, for taxi use.
