I was like you about two years ago. I really didn't need to replace the ims because it was still great when they pulled it out. I also had the clutch replaced all for $1700 parts and labor. It only gave me piece of mind.

I've put 50,000 miles in two years with no issues at all. Can't wait when it hits 100k miles in a few months!

I also got rid of the Mobil 1 overrated oil. Just plain oil every 5k miles. No issues!
I rev it to 5k rpm everyday on my way to work.

Maintenance is easy if you can raise the car. It's no different from standard cars.
If I can perform the 60k miles maintenance myself, anyone can. I can't believe some shops want $3000 just to replace the spark plugs, oil, oil filter, cabin filter, air filter, belt?

Just drive it
Just be glad that you didn't pay retail and people think you're rich when you only paid less than $15k
