I'm not saying that the control arms should be unbreakable. You're just getting defensive and wanting to argue. That's fine. I was merely curious, and really wonder where the S2000 would stack up against other cars in accidents if you counted the relative percentage of cars that have had their control arms broken in a crash.
Never once did I state or imply that this car is poorly designed, it just subconsciously struck me as odd when I looked through this entire thread (in a single sitting) and noticed that there were a lot more broken control arms than I would have expected and/or that I've noticed on other crash pictures that I've seen in the past.
No ill-will upon anyone, I was merely curious if anyone else thought this to be odd.
Could have alot to do with rear wheel drive and more guys losing control
