Good looking 911! I wont say the Arnage has been perfect, but for the most part it has been trouble free. CEL has gone on a few times for extremely minor things, and the passenger window has started malfunctioning recently. Its scheduled to go in for its 30k service next week, and the window should be fixed when it does. My family is the 3rd owner of the car, but it has been meticulously mantained, so there hasnt been much grief to deal with.

The most common issue, as with all exotic cars, is the car being driven. It rarely goes out more than 5 times a month. Any less than that and you can seriously run into trouble with the car sitting for long periods of time. Also, another thing to remember, is that it is COMEPLETLY hand built, compared to a GT. An average Arnage takes 400hours to build, while a GT will average 170. The Arnage will be more tempermental than a GT because of this reason. Just fyi incase you were comparing to a GT or something similar. It has been a huge joy to have it in the family though. Whatever trouble comes with its ownership is (for us anyway haha) worth it.
