New Brakes

Had my '11 LX 570 in for 95,000 service Friday. Had to have my first set of new brake pads since new. Pretty good service life.

Not bad.

I was curious myself about how long to expect the brakes to last. Mine has about 56,000 miles on it.

Not bad- I'm trying to aim for 60k-70k miles on the most recent set. Judging by the lack of wear during the time I've owned it, 100k miles, should I choose to keep mine that long, may not be out of the possibility. I have seldom had to change brake pads on anything I've owned...

That is crazy good. In 35 years of driving I have never had brakes last more than 50k miles. Living in the hills, I am happy with 25k on my other cars, but now I have something to look forward to with the LX.
