I have XXX miles & still don't have any issues!

To go with "I drove & did not crash" concept, I was thinking since it seems
some people think our cars have issues, we can proudly put forth how many miles you have, MY, your mods & non issues.
Last could be if you drive hard or not(Y/N). Hard being spirited, autoX or track.


- 30,000 Miles.
- 2015
- Drop in filter, catback, 17x8 wrapped in 245, ST XTA coilover, lowered 1".
- No issues.
- Y

All for shits & giggles.....


EDIT 05/05/18 :

GUYS. no ISSUES... Crickets is a feature.

Tcoat, your OCD, I know you must post but TOB is not a feature, it's an issue but tks for playing.
Head gasket .... ISSUE
Yes, yes, gas, wiper blades, oil change, brake pads are features. WAIT, you add gas ?

- 120,000 miles
- 2014
- TRD dropping and exhaust. 1.5 inch drop on RSR Superdown springs
- Blew up TOB and destroyed clutch by being too foolish to change it when it started yelling at me. Not one single other issue.
- 98% highway 1% city 1% spirited.

Oh, it is an FRS but thought I would play anyway

29,000 miles - head gasket leaking. Actually it was before that but thought it was the cam plate issue.



Dealer outright said "they couldn't find it." Ended up selling it back to the dealer.

MY 2015 (FRS), manual trans, purchased new.

Now 55,000 miles. No real issues so far.

Does gasoline, new set of tires, wiper refills count as non issues ?

96k on an early 13/late 12 build with a few problems but nothing truly debilitating just frustrating. I got the car CPO so the problems have been covered and that warranty will be ending soon so I've been beating on it a little harder the last few thousand miles to flesh out whatever may be hiding in there waiting for me. I don't drive the car softly most of the time as it is but things like tires and brakes have held up surprisingly well, it's actually still on the original front brake pads and rotors but they will get done soon when I do the clutch, just waiting for the TOB to truly give up for good. I would consider replacing the dampers but the car is riding really nicely now compared to what it was 2 years ago so unless they give me a problem I'll probably cheap out and just let them be.

Just before I got the car I joined here and started a thread - Would you buy the car again - Now I can answer that I would BUT there are a few changes I'd like to see. None of them are along the lines of more power but if there was I wouldn't complain.

53,000 miles
2014
Many mods (see garage)
No issues with Original Equipment
Only issues I've had were with or due to aftermarket parts (very few) and workmanship (body shops and alignment shops)
Daily driven, fast... but rarely hard.
