What you are really asking is: "How much do you spend annually on repairs and maintenance?"
You probably won't like my answer. My car is set up for TT competition and I spend plenty. A typical year if I paid someone else to do all the work:
Periodic Maintenance
3 sets of tires: $2700
1 set of racing brakes/rotors all four corners: $2000
Small spoilers and plastic ducts that get rubbed off: $200
3 oil changes: $450
1 Transaxle fluid change $250
2 Brake fluid flush Motul 600: $300
Repairs last year
A/C diagnose/recharge: $250
Clutch, FW, IMS, used trans install, water pump, T-stat, coolant flush: $4500
4 wheel bearings: $1800
Makes my eyes water just looking at the numbers. My car has only missed one event in seven years due to breakdown (cracked radiator). It is as bulletproof as any car I have driven but it didn't happen by accident, and it doesn't come cheap.
