Your car has a message: "Im tired"

Congrats though, that is ridiculous.

Care to share total average gas mileage for the big 100?

Well that and the speedometer isn't indicating "0".

For real though, I'm also interested in hearing about reliability over 100k.

I used to work for a pharmacy that delivered infertility medication in the tri state area.
95% of the miles are highway. The car sees 7k everyday countless times.

Dealer serviced all its life:
3500 mile oil changes
25k intervals brake fluid, coolant, tranny fluid

at 36k my trunk hatch broke fixed under warranty
75k or so both ront struts were replaced under extended warranty
78k water pump, thermostat, belt changed as preventative maintenance( i came from a bmw world so its normal)
99k my ac quit turns out it was a 36$ relay
3 sets of tires
4 sets of pads
3 sets of rotors


Thats all.
Absolutely no leaks from drivetrain, I tracked the car a few times and its a whole lot of fun.

One big lot of driving. Hope you were getting paid mileage - you could rack up 3 grand a day just on that, sweet.

3 grand? No way.

Say 500 miles @ 50¢ per mile is only $250.

For 3 grand at that rate you would have to drive 6,000 miles. You'd have to drive fast (250 miles per hour) for 24 hours. Boy that would be tiring.

I don't know of anyone who pays $6 per mile.

I dont drive like a girl.

My last BMW M3 set of rotors lasted 2600 miles. On the track. Can you say 800$ just for parts.

1 set of pads and rotors was burned in one track day outing with the Fit.

PM Me when you need a new set of rotors. I've got a set listed in the F/S / WTB section. I found out that the rotors from my Integra GS-R are the same part as on the FIT and I had an extra set of Raybestos Advanced Tech that never made it on the GS-R. (wish the brake pads were the same as I have a set of AEM Ceramics from that car too). I don't see replacing my rotors any time soon.

What are you using for rotors anyway and how many miles on average are you getting?
