    So how has everyone elses car been this year

    Lets see who has the most repairs in this year or thing that needed to get done.

    So far I am up to
    1 transmission
    1 set of brakes all the way around
    1 transmission mount (knew that fucker didn't sound right when I bought it.)
    2 New tires
    Set of new tires locks last owner took the fucking key
    Plus alot of other little odds and ends.

    And now today looks like a new flywheel and starter and it isn't even summer yet.

    Sorry had to rant this is pissing me off on all the repairs.

    I had a highway speed blowout of the right rear, stock F1. I replaced all 4 with Cooper Xeon X2S.. awesome tires!

    I drove it about 2,000 miles in the last year and changed the oil twice. Mobil 1.

    Holy deja vu, there is already an identical thread in the AAG.

    Well I completely rebuilt my suspension this year (about $5k) if that makes you feel any better:

    My car has been very good to me (knock on wood). The only things I can think of are a blow-out on the Firehawks, which I replaced with Falkens, the leaking pinion seal, which I fixed when I did the 410's, and those iritating little cracks on the tops of my doorpanels, which I haven't figured out how to fix yet.
