diff and tranny fluid every 18K ..buy your fluids online for about $600 and maybe 3.5 hours labor at the dealer... your right at $1K out the door

oil change... 6 bottles of mobil 0W40 at walmart ...$35 1 hour labr at the dealer... ( or there is a trick to change the oil filter with out removing the underpanel... takes it down to a 30 min job)

brakes.... last 30-40K if you dont track... you can change pads without rotors in most cases.... aftermarket pads are $500 rotors when you need them are like Stillen AP are a little over 2K .. and again unless you track you wont go through the OEM rotors anytime soon


then tires... this is the only area i havent found a way to really get around costs.... front tires last... 7-8K on average before they cord.... rears maybe 12K..... but you can replace just the fronts or just the rears if its within a certain tread difference threshold.... so maybe $850 for front tires every 7-8K...more if you dont do any performance driving and just street drive

i replaced fronts when the rears had 5/32nds left and no issue at all



so there is a realistic look at up keep on this car


i have all fluids recently changed so this car doesnt need anything for a while... i would say in the spring it would need rear tires only and a oil change....
