The Miata I traded in for my FR-S was 10 years old and had 38,000 miles meaning I averaged 3,800 miles a year. I've had my FR-S for 15 months and have just over 14,000 miles on it. You can tell which one I most enjoyed driving. (All my driving is pleasure as I'm retired.)

Like ol @whaap, I'm retired, but I do get out to go to the grocery store about every day.

The upper arrow is where I live; the lower arrow is the store. The yellow hi-lite is the route, in my FR-S ....... yep, about 30 miles round trip ....

Anyone else have this "problem" .. ??

Bought car end of May '13, have just under 16.8k kms on it (10.5k mi). I drive ~90 km (56 mi) to work 5 days a week + whatever tooling around I do on weekends. I had my last car for 13 years and put 300,000 km on it (~186k mi), but I took more driving trips in those years. Now we seem to fly.

Ha,ha!!
Yep, same problem here.
Also retired, own 2 other cars, so almost all mileage in my 86 is unnecessary, and I've done 24000 kms (15000 mi) in 9 months...

Bought the car with 45 miles on the odometer (5 miles were from my own test drive) and within a year put a little over 10k miles. We took one road trip from Florida to Georgia and a couple of trips from the Orlando to Tampa within the last year.

My fiance and I trade off cars about every 1-2 weeks, he drives an '05 tC. His commute to work is about 42 miles round trip and mine is 5.5 miles. So we trade off so that we can each enjoy the FRS and also to give the car a break from my short commutes. This is the first time in a long time that I hate my short commute to work and for good reason!
