:lol: all new designs for cars have issues…

Just because you don’t hear about all the rear subframes getting replaced on 350z’s and the fuel line issues with G35s…

Wow, amazing Z06 hate here. Cars have defects, all makes. Friend of mine had the airbag go off in his '96 911, nearly caused a serious crash. As it was, the car was damaged pretty good.

1996 PORSCHE 911 AIR BAGS:FRONTAL  
Recall Date: NOV 27, 1998  
Summary: VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: PASSSENGER VEHICLES. INADVERTENT DEPLOYMENT OF THE AIR BAG CAN OCCUR.  
Consequence: DEPLOYMENT OF THE AIR BAG WITHOUT WARNING COULD CAUSE A DRIVER TO LOSE VEHICLE CONTROL INCREASING THE RISK OF A VEHICLE CRASH AND PERSONAL INJURY.  
Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE AIR BAG SYSTEM AND A SPECIAL FILTER HORN RELAY WILL BE INSTALLED THAT PROTECTS THE AIR BAG UNIT FROM VOLTAGE PEAKS.  
Potential Units Affected: 1968  
Notes: PORSCHE CARS N.A. INC.

It’s inevitable that stuff like this will happen on a new model and doesn’t in any way decrease my desire for a Z06. Unfortunately, all my spare cash designated to be wasted on cars is going into racing this year. Also, I already don’t have enough space for the various cars/trailers/shit I have. But I am damn tempted by the Z06 in a way I haven’t been for a long time.

**GM recalls 05, 06 Corvettes**

_General Motors Corp. will recall more than 30,000 Corvettes after customers complained that the roof flew off while they were driving the $45,000 sports car._

^ or possibly all part of the same batch of cars. There are already 2007 models on the road and 2006 models being manufactured.

Yep…GM’s gotta fix that. Aside from that, it’s one sweet car! Although if any part of my brand new car flew off I’d be pissed! I’d be just as pissed (maybe more) if I was driving and part of someone’s roof hit my car!
