Good call. We have Hobby Lobby in this area. I'll have to check it out.

I just had a bunch of work done on mine at 93k. Clutch, flywheel, forward and rear struts. What kind of parts are on ebay? I wouldn't buy struts because they could be mine that the dealer or mechanic is selling. Handling was degraded. It was stock suspension.

I'm just over 320,000 km which works out to just around 200,000 miles on my 2013 which I bought new just over 7 years ago. Car has been great during this time span, with the following notable maintenance events aside from the routine oil changes, fluid changes, spark plugs etc. All the notes below are km references

Coil pack failure ~150k - got a CEL for one of the coil packs failing, swapped it out and no further failures since

Clutch change at 212k - this was mainly a throw out bearing issue, but since I was doing the work for the bearing I decided to replace the entire clutch while at it.

Alternator failure at 215k - this was the most notable issue I had with the car, unit just died randomly so had to swap it out.

Right rear wheel bearing failure at 300k - wheel was starting to rub, bearing failed and needed to be swapped out. No issues since.

Aside from that, the car has been great and quite reliable for year round driving in Canada. The car isn't beaten up on too hard and hasn't been tracked but the daily spirited driving has not caused many issues above and beyond the normal for a car with this many km's thus far.

Car has been running with an OFH, OFT Stg 2, Nameless DP, Perrin CB and stock suspension.

Hoping to enjoy it for as many km's she will give me....she still puts a smile on my face every time I drive it so I can't really ask for much more

123k here. Car has worn in significantly, daily driven. Had the valve springs, clutch throwout bearing, spark plugs replaced last year and it's running well. Fixing up the wear and tear by stiffening up my mounts and subframe (whiteline) to reduce drivetrain lash. Fuel pump can be a bit noisy when its not in crickets mode. Body and paint is in ok shape for and outdoor kept car in the city.

Yesterday (05/11/2020) was eight years and 165,354 miles which equals 6.6 times around the equator.

Some more details on my owner's log here.

It's been a fun eight years, and I have no plans to trade in the car soon, although I have started looking for a potential new DD or at least another to share time with. the 86. Probably not for 12 to 24 months though.

Right now this change in direction has my attention.

Same. My 2016frs is barely over 10k miles. She *is* my daily driver, but I don’t drive her daily, if that makes sense!

Wow
That's a change in direction alright. About as big a change as you could make!

I own a Suburban, so not that big a change. Plus I tend to cross-shop all around the place when looking for a new car.

I'm definitely going bigger with my next car though since it will probably be our travel car after retirement. Looking at the CT5-V series but there is something about a 600+HP 4WD SUV that makes me smile.
