Vancouver cars are under driven and under stressed

They see like 5% of the trauma of LA/NY cars

Almost every performance car is going to have a gotcha. You aren't driving a understressed ratrolla from the 90s that makes 100hp.

E46 - rear subframe, rod bearings, vanos
E9xM - rod bearings, throttle actuators
All Porsches - Bore scoring, especially if it sits a lot
Early AMG 6.2 - head bolts
Audi R8 - rear subframe
Nissan Z - It's a nissan

Does that mean we don't have to worry about PDK/Throttle actuators I haven't really seen any R8's go down either.

We don’t even have potholes to crack the R8 front subframes

Throttle actuators aren’t a big deal - rod bearings are tho.
I wouldn’t worry about the PDK
