purchased Dec. 6 2007

2007 LBP

450-32,200 miles

1. Stock Cat. converter w/ secondary 02 sensor(18k miles, my friends' cat also went out around the same mileage on his '07 as well).

2. Axle nuts(30k miles, replaced but are usually re-torqued).

3. PCV valve( 31k miles, replaced due to my oil dipstick popping up due to the PCV valve being unable to vent the gases from the block in high rpms).

Had to replace tires and brakes due to wear.

cost was $0...All covered under warranty.

Driving style is daily driver with weekly-monthly amount of canyon/mountain runs and semi-aggressive driver(when I'm in the mood).

2001 Purchased at 58,000 miles. Now has 88,000 miles.
Replaced fuel filters - clogged - $120
Replaced brake pads - worn - $60
Replaced clutch - worn out - $650
Replaced sway bar mounting brackets - Broken - $20
Replaced left rear axle - Broken - $225
Replaced heater blower motor - motor bad - $200
Replaced rear bearings and hubs - both sides. - Bearings bad, spun on hub - $600
About every 10,000 milea it gets a CEL for misfires. I inspect and clean the plugs and connections on the coil packs, regrease the boots and it is good for another 10,000 miles.

MY2000 131K miles currently. Daily driver all it's life, autocross car until about last year, probably have 500+ runs on it.

1 set of front brake pads at around 110K, about to do the rears
1 radiator @ about 100K (cracked plastic)
1 rear upper control arm (bushing died, squeaky, have to buy whole arm)
1 set of spark plugs, changed the OEM's around 100K per manual, electrode as 80% gone!

Multiple sets of tires
On the 3rd battery.
A few valve adjustments

Think that's it.

Wow 4 starters? What happened each time? Mind has a slight grinding noise on startup when it's really cold outside but still works fine.
