They all shake, but....

I believe in '03 and later cars, the "A" pillars were filled with foam to dampen some vibrations. I'm unaware of any structural changes to the chassis during its model run. Spyder owners may know more. Enjoy your new car and welcome to the forum. This is very valuable resource.

Thanks Frankie

Just had a good look there is a sub frame that the engine mounts and steering rack fit to that bolts up to the chassis legs you can see where its all going wrong?

Has any one fitted a strut brace or know if one is available??? This might take out some of the flex?

No strut braces, but...

Hey Moto,

Check out a prior thread, in which the Trofeo race car was photgraphed with a brace in front of the radiator if I recall correctly. I don't recall ever seeing a strut tower brace for our cars on the forum. I'm sure we would all be interested in such a product, as the structural rigidity of the closed coupe leaves something to be desired as well.
