In a day or so you will have more mileage than my 6 month old IS.

30,641 in less than 11 months. No surprise to me at all. The car has literally been from coast to coast - San Francisco to New York City - and a lot of places in between.

I bought it to drive, not to look at.

Very nice and I bet that during your trips, you didn't even think twice if your car would start or not. We've done several cross country trips in various vehicles and the C6 Corvette always made us cringe as we never knew if would start, leak, creak and it was not even a year old.

Actually in May I drove our '05 Scion tC with the wife (8th - 10th), my '93 TT Supra with a friend (22nd - 23rd), and the IS350 (29th - 31st) by myself from Sacramento to Atlanta. Shell loved me last month to the tune of a little over $1k in gas alone.

And I never once worried about any of them having an issue (other than the usual possible tire problems from holes or debris) on any of the drives. And I will say for sure, I-40 from Amarillo to the Arkansas border was misery in the Supra with Tein HAs.
