I have not had any issues with my car, and I must say it is just awesome to drive it. Now with cooler weather approaching here in the desert southwest, the top will be down much more often.

Careful now... One could say that the OEM brakes are more than sufficient also

@ 510 hp I have to turn on winter mode if the ground is wet. Road and Track did a thing for drivers cars and the XKR-S got slower times than the mustake and 'maro; the reason? TRACTION. 420 is ample - remember when 300 was only found in "exotics" of the time? Now rental cars and V6 mustangs have it. 420 is enough but 500 is such a cool number of horses.
