I've been dailying my '06 coupe for the last 5 years (60+ mile round trip commute) in Austin traffic. Car just rolled over 150k miles a couple of weeks ago. I'm shooting for at least 200k.

Still on the original clutch and water pump. Don't know what to say about my water pump but it's still hanging in there. I guess I just got lucky. Only thing I had go out was the belt tensioner but that was a simple repair. Going to have to replace the valve cover gasket (noticed it was leaking while I was changing out suspension bushings), probably do it over the holidays. Otherwise, just normal routine boring ass general maintenance that all cars need.

Agree regarding ATM access - I always have to slightly open my door and lean out to reach the screen. And the sunvisors are on the small side. And here in central Texas, all I see out the back are the huge grills of the billion F150s littering the roads - but that's a rant for a different day.

If you enjoy driving it - then DRIVE IT. That's what it's made for.
