118,000 km: How high is too high?
Hi guys
I bought my 2015 BRZ June of 2019 with 98,000 kilometers on it. I didnt winter drive it (I live in Toronto) but drove it a lot in the summer/fall. I'm currently at 118,000 km. I have put around $10,000 into the car and I'm afraid that I'm setting myself up of failure with future upgrades. Mind you a lot of the upgrades can be parted out. Do you know owners who have gotten up to 200,000 km's and been ok? Just a bit nervous about all this. What should I do in terms of maintenance and body to make sure it has a long life?

Stop driving it. Buy @Tcoat ' s car as it has higher mileage but it will come with a fresh coat of paint..
