I have been lucky with the widebody. And the JA I have since picked up actually. :p Every other staz has been off the road more often then not. But these broke that curse.
OH GOD, what have I done, they heard me, now they are conspiring against me.

Woody, I hope your staz(s) can't see what you've just said. :D
Hey, my JA auto-cross car is 100%. Despite trying to kill it, it won't die. :D but nothing lives forever.

Yes its plastic but it landed right on the point of an edge and just snapped off a nice chunk.

or when someone walks past the car on stands in the garage when you have the front bar and grill off and catches the side indicator plastic and snaps in clean in half. :x :glare:

Yeah build quality of the later models is awesome. They last forever and dont' stuff up.
I send my car to get that door panel repaired, and what happened? They fuckers almost snapped the centre console in half. Its cracked all the way up on both sides leaving like 1cm from top on both sides. I grilled them about it and they said they never removed it. But I know they did because they put the gear knob back on wrong.
