Assuming nothing breaks, it shouldn't be too bad.
Oil change once a year, which will cost ~$75 if you do it yourself, or ~$150 at a dealer.
Tire life really depends on the tire and your driving style, but my non-S got 12k out of the 17" OE Pilot Sports, and they still had 1/2 tread when I took them off after 7 years (replaced for safety reasons).
Brakes? I don't know... my '01 only has 17k miles, so they're still fine.
Other stuff is more standard:
Brake fluid/clutch fluid should be changed every few years.
Coolant is supposed to be a 10 year system according to my dealer, but not sure how I feel about that.
I don't have my service manual in front of me, so not sure on the belt/plug/sensor intervals.
Tips? There are a bunch of guides out there, but I'd say one of the more common pieces of advise is if you can afford a certified car, go that route. Warranties can be nice.
