here's a list of things i've done (some personally, some at an indy) since purchasing my car in May 2009 with ~65k miles. currently at 103k miles (37k miles, 3.5 years). i don't drive the car in the winter time, and tend to take long road trips.

total cost so far ~$7500. add another ~$600 for 8 oil changes. when it comes out in the spring, it'll be time for new belt, air / cabin filters and tires.
