I tend to agree with PHMCobra. I too have had an issue with a cracked windshield... but cracked windshields certainly aren't limited to BDR roadsters... just search these very forums and you'll see what I'm referencing. I too went with an MR10 Lexan windshield... and problem solved. Where the issue with BDR lies... is getting replacement glass... and it's my understanding that's only an issue for BDR's that have aluminum windshield frames... the chrome over brass frame is a different story. If I've been misinformed... someone please let me know.

In addition... like PHMCobra... I've never had a broken motor mount... nor have I had issues with the rear differential... and I'm right around 425 HP with a 5 speed transmission. I'm 6', 225 lbs and I fit well (could actually move the seat back if necessary)... and I have no complaints regarding the car. I've even had a local and very well respected speed shop that's been in the business for about 40 years look it over and come away impressed with the build quality... and he's not known for being easily impressed.
