Thanks.
You're driving harder than I have. I think perhaps I can rest easier now, seeing how you drive, and the resulting condition of your injectors (which look fine to me, not on the verge of melt-down), it all suggests that for my driving conditions ... I need not be so concerned.
My car was purchased right off the truck in May 2012, so it's an early build and I've been concerned with the reports of serious problems.
The history on your car suggests that, indeed, driven as most of us are likely to drive it, we are unlikely to melt our injector seals, never mind blow our engines. I'm back to thinking that these problems are more likely to arise for those who drive their car in track-like conditions wherever that may be. I suspect that cumulative heat build-up may be the major factor, not the occasional brisk, redline shifts.
Again, thanks, Dezoris, for the time and effort that you've expended sharing your experiences with us. This thread has been THE single most reassuring thread I have read concerning this issue.
I feel relieved.
