Original brake pads lasting forever

I am up to 115k miles on my 2013 BRZ (bought new in 2013 with 5 miles). I drive 100 miles per day for work 5 days a week, hitting heavy stop and go traffic each way. In addition to that, I drive a decent amount for personal use. Probably ~26k/year

Last week I started hearing a squeak when I applied the brakes and thought I was finally due for new pads so I go out to my local dealership yesterday to pick up pads. I flipped up my caliper today to find my current pads have almost half of pad meat left; both sides have identical wear. Has anyone else had pads this long? On my prior cars (Integra GSR, S2000) I've replaced pads twice within similar mileage.
