I'll roll over 89,000 this weekend on a trip to AL. It seems like so many, but seeing what others have on theirs, it seems a bit inconsequential. I plan on putting a lot more miles on my buggy ... hopping that this is the last car I will buy. Looking to start a new job and will work from home, so mileage will drop drastically. Plus, looking to retire in about 2 years, so the "pleasure" mileage may go back up. So far, no problems with mine other than door lock actuators failing (both left doors, at the same time).

A question I know all the SS owners have is...how long will the turbo hold up? Has anyone come up with an about average milage for replacement yet? Or are they designed to live the life of the motor......Now that the high milers are adding up, the problem areas will start showing up, and Im sure alot of people will base how far they will push these little beasts on that info before trading in....

My 07' has 56K on it........a little over 11K miles a year BEFORE I got it. Now, it'll be adding about 20K+ miles a year on it with my work commute and trips out of state. I expect it to have 200K+ in another 5 years easily....
