We have very similar expenses.
Gas is about the same and both maintenances are close as well.
I had to change all 4 tires, you are lucky to get away with only rears, but fronts are coming.
In year two you can also expect:
Front and rear brake changes
Front tires (in your case)
Maintenance B
This is not a cheap car to own or "normal" for sports cars.
It eats tires and brakes and the maintenance plans are expensive.

For me it makes no sense to keep the car after the 3 years. The buy back is 65k on my car and after 3 years of payments and down payment the cars total cost would be 110K. They kill us on the monthly payments and the buy back. If my intent was ever to buy it outright I would have just financed it.
This car is going back to them after 30 months with the 6 month trade in allowance or after 36. months with more mileage on it than I originally paid for..

I'm in pretty much the same boat as those above -- after 3-4 years, I will certainly move on from my current car. As it stands, that should hopefully keep me under my 4/48,000 waranty
