I'll note that I've had the rear tail light issue in both lights (coming back in drivers side again), drivers side weather stripping, and windows sticking when cold.

No big issues though.

It's nice to know I'm not the only one racking up the miles on their brand new FR-S. Had mine since June 4th, I'm at a little over 12k, and I was on temporary duty for about a month and a half, without my baby.

I have passed the 20k mile mark already im about half way to 21k miles. I drive a lot because of my military job im all over the place and because i enjoy driving the car. Im always like, when people are supprised how many miles i have on my car, what do you not drive your car or im in the military so that should be explanation enough lol. I use the car for its intended purpose so im not worried about mileage running up im just enjoying the drive.

When I take a drive trip I get $0.55 per mile, so it's not that bad. I've had 10 of these trips this year and they are usually 600-800 round trip which means I get $350-400 to cover costs. With 10 trips at $350 I make $3500/year. (Estimates): 210 days of ownership, 23000 miles, 109 miles/day average, 32 mpg average = 3.4gal/day average. Average premium gas price...$3.90ish = $2784 spent on gas so far. With $3500 in payments yearly it means I get all my gas paid for + $700/year for maint.

Assuming I'll run out of warranty in April/May. I should use that extra $700 to extend my warranty to 60K

I'm military with 11k on it to be honest it's an under $30k car I'm not trying to preserve it once it gets up there in miles around 100k and there is a new cool model with all the bells and whistles this one is gonna be gone so I can have the new cool car.

Damn I thought I was one of the highest. I've had mine since 6/7 and just passed 13k this morning. That's with a 35 mile commute each way, but I'm on the prowl for a new job closer to home so my mileage increase should slow down considerably.
