5 1/2 years and 62K miles. Just oil changes, and fluids flushed around 50k. I also need tires at 41k. I had an issue of engine overheating due to thermostat housing failing.

Geez... I passed 123,456 on Saturday, on my 2011. I run this thing hard, drive it like I stole it. But, I take care of it, too... my philosophy is to drive it, love it, work it, make it earn its keep, but take good care of it, too. It gets washed, and the interior detailed, three times per week. Wax gets on it every couple of months, and fluids are changed out religiously.

I had an airbag sensor in the passenger seat go out on me: $900. I've had a number of broken wheels studs (that's sort of a mystery, but fairly easy and inexpensive to fix). I go through a lot of tires (because I haul ass on mountain roads as part of my daily commute), and at 100,000 miles, I needed to put a new set of brake pads on. Recently had to replace the battery and the alternator (around $800 total). Other than those few things, it's been very reliable, very solid.

After 123,456 miles, I still love it. Plus, I STILL can't spend five minutes filling at the gas station without SOMEBODY dropping a compliment. That never hurts!

That's pretty cool, good for you. Nice to hear that these cars are not just nice to look at but can be driven and last.

Mine has been @ 1,345 for the last 9 going on 10 months. After 5 years 6 months owning it I still like it, just don't know if I love it like did. Need to figure it out though.

You must have the highest mileage 5th gen on this site. It's good to see that you're driving it like it should be driven instead of saving it for a future Barrett-Jackson auction like many on here seem to be doing. lol!

$900 for an airbag sensor? Sheesh! I sure hope you didn't pay that much for it. As for the alternator, I wonder if they can be rebuilt on these cars? I know on the older 3rd gens they could which can save you a lot of money.
