For stock cars? Cam plate might leak oil eventually, and coil pack failures on cars that get run really hot, like on a track. Tail light condensation. The stock battery sucks.

These cars do run hot, so if you do plan on tracking it, oil cooling should be a priority.

Most of the rattles and stuff have mostly been resolved in the 2015/2016 cars, but the earlier ones were a little bit more prone to developing rattles.

Your fuel pump will probably make a chirping noise at some point. It's normal, and doesn't hurt anything.
