overall awesome car, although sometimes the drivetrain noises scare the **** outta me... im afraid the car is just gonna explode lol.
im sure alot of you hear those clanking and clunkin noises when you shift sometimes. right? right?????

About to his 20k (got the car in January). New tires and brake pads, clutch is going strong, but I have the dreaded P0300 and a few annoying rattles on the driver side of the car.

20,300 miles
Noisy drivetrain. Deceleration noise is sometimes deafening.
Casualties so far:
Stock pads - died at a Carguys event and scored right inner front rotor - approx. 9,000 miles
Stock tires - down to flat/even tire (looked liked slicks) - approx 10,000 miles
Replacement pads - Carbotech Bobcats died at a NASA event - approx. 12,000 miles
Replacement tires - Kumho Victoroacers almost completely gone after three track events (approx 500 miles HARD, HARD VIR lapping)
Replacement tires - Falken Azenis Sports down to the wear bars on the inner shoulder - approx 20,000 miles
Still going strong - Carbotech Panther pads. Went to a "track only" pad for the track, and am on OEM pads on the street.
Still going, but for how long - stock clutch. Definately slips from time to time, but still holding.
We'll see after a three day Carguys VIR weekend. We'll see.
