Try reading more often. I can't pin point exactly where I've read about the topic because I read so much but if you try doing a bit of research I'm al most certain you'll run into it. If I recall I’ll post the source but it really shouldn’t be so hard to believe regardless. The VQ is pretty unrefined / low on torque, the limited slip is sub par and there are issues with the oil over heating, etc. It might be a tough pill for you to swallow but the facts are the facts. Lastly, if you don't think the VQ could use some work try driving a few other cars. But don't drive a new Boxter / Cayman S because you'll walk away really depressed. I'm not saying it's a POS or anything but being in denial doesn't help improve anything. You live and learn.

Supposedly it will have a lot more torque and be more refined vs. the max-out /trashy VQ.

No, I am talking about the quote in bold.
You have zero information on any of this, the reason I know so is because I read more of this BS information everyday than I care to.

On the note of the high oil, LSD, etc. Well...duh, everyone on here knows that, but the fact remains that it is "good enough" for street use. You want to track this car or start throwing on forced induction, of course you are going to need to upgrade those components, you will have on any car in the 30k price range.

For one I answered your question, don't play dumb.

Second, a sub par limited slip, oil cooling, brakes, etc are things that could use work and not every 30-40k car requires this for track use.

It's obvious you're in massive denial.

Good thing you have access to the medicine you will need after one of those solid axles wipes the floor with your *** around a road course.

Unless he brings free drugs. Then you will be there. But don't park next to him, he might get angry.

You gotta get them addicted first, then you start charging.

Mustang is a good value, no doubt. Which is why they are a dime a dozen. There are more mustangs on the road than porn videos on the web.
