Traction only bothers me when it's wet, so I don't really mind.
Biggest Complaints-
The stock brakes feel weak/crappy for a car of that weight
Plastic on t-tops and panel in between fading (but then again, it is a 94')
The plastic in the door panels that get scratched too easily
Entire back of seats the same way, even with leather interior
Squeaks/Rattles like a madman
Window Motors
However, I love my car

Come on!!! I havent heard any complaints of the interior!!!! Dont you guys hate the interiors of these cars? Cause I sure do! The rear seats look rather strange, and that bump on the passenger side as well. Its also not too comfortable riding in the passenger side. Comfort is a BIG problem on these cars.

Overall the quality of my TA has been good, except my driver side headlight motor is growling. The passenger side went out years ago and was covered under warranty.

Feels like im driving a 4 door sports car sometimes
Squeeky ( headaches)
Garbage suspension ( feels like a drover over a land mine everytime i hit a pot hole)
Garbage brakes ( i can step on the peddle with two feet and not skid tires)
Garbage seats ( hundred rips in my drivers seat)
Garbage seat belts ( ripping)
Garbage headlights motors ( noisey)
Garbage visibilty at night ( i cant see ****!)
Garbage window motors ( went out once )
Garbage passenger seat ( wount stfu)
Humungous doors ( its like opening up a door the size of a miata)
Ugly interior ( yeah)
Back bumper ( no matter what it gets dirty )
spark plugs ( cost 5x as much as the plugs to get them changed)
Turn signals ( I have become a pro at changing the bulbs)
brake lights ( look like they got spray painted black)
Retarted remote ( I cant unlock my car with it anymore )
REtarted Door locks ( my drivers lock decided to stop working for no reason )
Leaky ttop ( never drive through a car wash
)
Rock chips ( ok my fault)
Cheap floor mats ( deteriorating and pretty much gone)
Weird radio ( sometimes decides to mess up ,and instead of showing me the normal numbers its some weird mixed up things)

My 2000 WS6 Vert got those....it had 2100 miles and never was raced. You know where they came from? Putting my hand on the quarter panel and bending down to wash the rear wheels. I noticed them forming too and couldnt figure out what it was until I caught myself putting my hand there to brace myself once. I am not saying thats where everybodies is coming from but that part is not braced and just a little pressure there bend its.
After that I started paying attention I notice dents there in most of the FBs I see...even V6 cars.

The traction issue is easily corrected with a set of DR's.... Since most of us drive these cars only in the summer, a set of DR's every year is all you need.
I feel way safer now, not afraid to drop the hammer...
