Seriously, Ken? That's crazy.

I'm at half that, per year. Around 15,000. maybe even 12500.

whoa. that means you would have to take the car in for service A and B within the same year and replace all the tires. Sounds expensive.

Can't blame you for doing 30k / yr. if you love driving your car, but I guess you don't lease?!

I'm at 26k. I love driving my car but I'm getting a used one because i don't want the warranty to run out in four years and yes I'm talking about the 100k warr.

I do over 300miles a week- so 1,320 miles on average a month x 12 months equals at least 15,840. Not including traveling thats coming up (spring break road trips..etc) or other misc. trips that I must do-

i was doing about 15k a year but now that my office is only 2.2 miles from my house, i'm averaging about 150 miles a week. so i guess now 7800 miles a year.

I made this thread yesterday and i wanted to have a poll too,but the forum froze. I didnt even expect the thread to be posted.

Yea i bought my car last april and im nearing 30k miles. I did my service A during my 5th month of ownership. I did not lease. I love driving this car so i dont look back but damn i wonder how many miles before ill have some serious problems with this car.

It also doesnt help i work 6 days a week and my commute is about 70 miles a day

Do you think these 230k's will keep up after 100k miles? At this rate ill be at 100k in 2 more years..Maybe ill do a C32 motor swap

Car will be 1 year old next month. I just hit 15K.

Ken, wow, 70 miles a day! You must be one those people who own a big home a distance away in the suburbs, but travel to work in the city. If so, got to do, what you got do.

it's been a year now since i got mine and i'm under 11k(km).
i drove it a lot more in the beginning but since then i havent. only takes 24km round trip to work so it's very close for me. i think from here on out, unless i go on a road trip (doubtful) i'll avg. 8-9km a year. 30k is nuts! and thats miles!
