Those of us who are into these cars understand the level of investment necessary in owning one. There are indeed a few reliability issues with the cars in their stock form but most of the supposed "problems" that people have with them come from going the quick/cheap route with throwing a bunch of mods on the car.
If you drove anything other than the Track model, the ride is crappy because the stock wheels are insanely heavy. I've driven both Track and non-Track cars and even though the suspension tuning is identical the Track rides much better because it has very light wheels which don't bog down the shocks with a bunch of unsprung weight.
