I have an 09 that just hit 19k miles on it. Luckily no real problems so far. I had it since June 2011 with 10k miles on it. It's my DD but I'm close to work and besides to and from work it in the garage bc we take my wife's car every where else. I was on the steering lock bypass waiting list before it was even finished being designed. Lock failure was by biggest fear so I made sure to get that out of the way. Made sure i didn't have oil consumption issues before I modded and ran out of warranty. Got the trunk springs replaced before warranty ran out. Then added my oil cooler. Been using redline since day one and changing every 3 months since I don't drive far. Did a trans fluid change and will do it yearly and diff fluid every 5k miles. Last is the CSC if I have the extra cash flow to do it along with clutch and flywheel before it fails I will. If not I will when and if it fails. Bc that's a lot of money up front to fix something that isn't broken. So for me so far so good. Like another member said do your research first see what's out there and try to take care of the items you can. Pretty much every car has some issues and the ones that don't probably aren't worth owning/driving. Last thing I noticed my upper radiator hose getting some coolant residue around the neck, so some Z1 hoses are going on today to take care of that.
