    Well, I think it's finally broken in! Bought the car with 10K on it 6 years ago, and don't think I'll ever sell it. Drives better with every mile added. Use it for road trips, and a summer daily driver. Can't wait to hit 100K.

    That is awesome! You would be another good person to post your experience of $/mile ownership over a solid period. Others have made very helpful/insightful posts like this one.

    Would be interested to see what your experience has been regarding the investment in maintenance over your usage.

    Good for you - I love seeing these cars being used and enjoyed as they should be. I'm not quite at your annual rate - stupid virus! - but I can at least say that in the two years that I have owned my car it has already done three times the mileage it did in the preceding 10 years!

    Excellent! Bought mine with about 15k miles and sold with 65k miles, now own one with 50k miles and looking forward to increasing the mileage on that. Good to be home.

    I totally agree with "Drives better with every mile added" statement. My 575m is at 64k miles now and it drives so well. Enjoy your beautiful car in good health!

    Congratulations.

    This is most likely a biased crowd to some degree. :D
