100k plus 7th gen peeps?

Just wondering how many miles people have gotten out of their 7th gens? I'm almost at one year with mine and have put over 20k on it! Bought with 115 and I am at 137 now. Got it in Dec 2013 w/ 115k and it was an 09 so the p/o racked up miles too. Sadly I get the 100+ span :/

Kinda curious how far this thing will go. Not bad so far but I have never been a fan of front wheel drive cars so torque steer and unpredictable handling suck but the quickness of this car sure is and the engine noise is awesome.

Not sure what will be next; probably can't afford an 8th gen but I have been looking at 08-10 Inf M's as a nice stepping stone. Same kinda look and feel inside but much better quality I feel like.

Thanks all

At 122k here, and bought it two years ago with 40k.
Yes, that is over 40k a year while I have owned it.
Nothing major to report.
Just did a brakes and suspension overhaul and some new wheels.

At 141K plus and bought mine brand new back in 09 when they first dropped and I'm thanking God that I have had to do nothing major in the way of engine, trans or other to keep it rolling.

I've had to have a few repairs done to damage underneath due to hitting extremely high speed bumps (Eibachs are too low for this area) and other damages from people hitting my car but other than that it has been just the regular changing of filters, hoses, brakes and fluids/whatnot but nothing major.

That is the Akebono 14" 370Z brake kit. Same brakes as the G37s as well.
They stop a lot better. Weight is the down side. They do hurt acceleration a little. That is why I bought the wheels that are on the car now. They are very light and it helps offset the added weight in the brakes.

Size / offset of the wheels?
