Not really, but I've never seen anyone with the copper plugs complain that their plug's electrode snapped off, tumbled around in their head, and ruined the entire motor. I've seen a few people with iridiums have that problem though.

When it comes to a turbo Honda:
You'll change more plugs with copper v-power plugs.
You'll change more engines with iridium/platinum plugs.
