Not that I've heard so far. They both are LS6 cars and both would be out of warranty by now. I know that there are 4 different versions of rear ends, each improving slightly over the last, but a total re-design never did appear on the first gen V's. Checking on the rear and motor mounts would be more important than the year for me. I picked up an 04 with 41 on it last year and it had the 4th gen rear upgrade. There are a few links on here and the other forum that shows each # group for the generation of rears.

V's are great cars. ive had around 65 cars in the past 8yrs and this one is my all-time favorite. ive only put 400miles on my cobra this year because i'd rather drive the V. i bought it in april with 68k on it, and it just turned 80k last week. the only things ive had to replace was the battery(free- walmart warranty 
) and a window regulator. my wheel bearing just started humming so i'll be replacing that and doing the brakes on it this weekend. They are horrible in the 1/4 mile, but on the highway it is a monster. ive beaten several cars that ran mid 12s at 112-116mph...usually pull them by a car or two. I plan on keeping this car until it gets close to 100k, then i will sell it and buy a V2.
oh yea, and girls looove the caddy.
