*something loose?
*brake pulsation, your rotors are probably warped
*this is your tires flat spotting, and normal for high performance tires. going away after 10 minutes when they have a chance to heat up.

*Steering wheel shakes wildly when breaking from 70MPH and above.
*Steering wheel shakes when driving above 70 MPH then after 10 mins or so it
goes away.

Symptoms are present for the first 20 mins of the ride, after the car's been driven for a while I dont notice any of the above problems. Thanks in advance.

SHhhh is correct....lol.....heres your gold star!!!
Clunking=strut and strut top
Streering wheel shake at braking=warped rotors
streering shakes above 70=tires going bad and need 4 wheel balance
Just my opinion, i am a tech for subaru and i see these symptoms alot during the winter.....the 10 mins and goes away is normal though car sits overnight or for prolonged time and you get flat spots on the tires. hope i helped.

Thanks for all the answers guys, I think I have a better idea on what to expect now.

My car does sit outside, and the winter is pretty bad here in MO. That might be the case on some of the issues I'm having. Thank you for your help.
