.....but it's true, Lambos have more than their fair share of problems. How about doors that don't stay adjusted, check engine lights, climate control issues, how about alarm problems. And this is just the short list of warranty concerns. Then we start to get into wear items: rear tires that last about 2000 miles and cost $500 each, or clutches that last for between 2,000 and 9,000 miles at $7-8000 per each replacement.
Anyway, feel fortunate that you guys don't have to deal with big-ticket issues such as these:-)

Oh well, 5300 and no major issues.

The Mark I arms are no longer available, and the Mark II have taken their place.

For anyone not aware, my opinion is that the original Mark I arms provide a superior driving experience for the sports car enthusiast. The arms look so similar that one wouldn't think the difference would be so great.

If you do consider yourself a serious driver (and there's nothing wrong if you're not), I would encourage you to try to obtain a set of these control arms. It won't be easy, but where there's a will, there's a way.

improve the feel of the MKII arms.... If one could get some custom bushings cast with a larger metal sleeve to reduce the overall amount of urethane "give", I think we would have something approaching the MKI setup....<p>Ted

He said a VAN, or are you the guy with the painted sunset and chrome pipes down the side? 8-P

Group Buy possibility. I'm in.

It certainly could help, though I'd first scour junk yards for Mark I arms.
