Default Thinking of buying 09-11

Just wondering if there is anything I should watch out for? Or if a certain year is better than another? Any advise?

Thanks

Front wheel clicking is a common complaint. Also supercharger " rattle " from the spring on the factory isolator. Easily remedied by replacing with an non -spring isolator.

Some have complained about some rocking motion with the recaro seats.

As for advice, yes, go drive one and when you do, drive it like you stole it and you'll be hooked !

What GT Racer said is about all you really have to watch out for in the 2009+ Vs.

After you drive one, you will want to buy it.

If you are looking, there is a few that are up for grabs on a pure V forum.
