people get lemons in every brand from BMW, benz audi, chevy, kia... all of them... you can go online and find a complaint for every single company in the world but they wouldnt be in business if they build lemons regularly..

oh and the owner of CPP stopped making his adjustable control arms(plus they needed contant greasing and made noises and were $750 for the stainless ones) .. kmac is the only answer and i have yet to run into someone that has them with anything good to say about them... (i would still try them if i could find a shop that knew how to put them in and adjust them)
a moderate drop shouldnt kill your camber though..

1.8T engines can get a 6 speed as an option, standard on the ultrasport models.
I almost bought a 3.0L A4 ultrasport, but after doing 20 sets of cat converters on them, it kinda went sour for me. Especially since the cats cost $1,000 a pop.
1.8T engines develop sludge, but you only have to change a $20 oil pick up tube to fix it, and if you use seafoam it shouldn't be a problem.
