Just turned 20,000 miles. Have done 5 oil changes, but have had no issues with the car. I bought one of these windshield sun shades (
Covercraft Car Sun Shades - 3260+ Reviews on Covercraft Custom Windshield Sun Shades - UV Shield, Heat Shield ) and use it all the time, since the car sits outside. And I got the darkest legal window tint. I'm not sure how susceptible the red seats are to fading, but I'm not taking any chances of having pink seats.
