They are pretty solid cars. there will be some clutch noises (clunking) at low speeds that will kinda throw you off at first, but thats normal these cars. other than that i dont really know of any other problems with these cars that a test drive could pick up. the 6mt tranny is great. pretty stout, and can hold power well. the syncro rev match is perfect for spirited driving. as long as theres no grinding or trouble getting into gears then theres nothing to worry about

long term: you will NEED an oil cooler to track it. these things like to get hot really quick. also, a change to some dot 4 brake fluid and different pads would almost certainly become necessary if you plan to hit the track frequently, as our brakes like to heat up and fade after prollonged track times
