when i first bought my car with 42k on the odometer, i took it to porsche for the RMS to be replaced. while in there, i told them to fix anything else they saw an issue with. Final tally was about $1500 with a 2 year warranty on the work and a car that had been inspected thoroughly inside and out.

since then, i've done brake pads in the front, 3 oil changes, and charged the AC (all done myself except for the first oil change, learned my lesson about going to the dealer for that...). that's all.

my car's driven every day and runs like a dream. have yet to see a check engine light and everything works as new. almost to 60k miles. come april/may 2013 i'll have the 60k tune up and prob spring for the waterpump/thermostat/AOS.

bought the car for 14,500 in 2010, spent about $1700 in repairs and have a car that is, in my opinion, in excellent condition for the year and mileage. I do not anticipate any problems and plan on preventing some of the more common issues before they even present themselves. after april/may next year, i plan on hitting 100k with ONLY maintainance items to complete.
