I buy cars to use so pampering is not an option. Doesn't mean I deliberately beat it up either. My driving routine has changed dramatically since I bought the FRS so I am now in the position to buy something a bit nicer without feeling bad that I am going to put 50K miles on it in a year. This of course opens up a whole new category of car for me.
