I'm here with my 6s. This is a phenominal car, I love it. 62,000 miles and not one single issue. I'm hoping to make it to an event this spring/summer.

damn dude, really? I didn't have any issues with my '06 which I took up to 30k miles before I offloaded it.
I did had some stupid issue with the power seat which threw a SRS alert, but it was covered under warranty.

oh ya,, I had a tick in it for weeks and it got louder and louder.. I took it to Bob Penkhus where I bought it and got my oil changes and I told them about it and they said they couldnt hear anything.. I was like WTF you can hear that tick tick tick tick tick.. The mechanic straight up said it was probably the belt and it had a small amount of grease and dirt on it so I should replace the belt.. I was like, really,, dirt?...
Anyways about 3wks later... started the car one day.. LOUD ticking sound, I was like um this is not go. I called Penkhus after I left my house to go to the store and made an apt to come see them the next day, Well I didnt make it to that apt... When I pulled into the parking spot at safeway my engine just seized up and a huge "CLUNK" sound happened and bam nothing at all!! So I had it towed to Penkhus and had to fight with them about getting the engine replaced cause they said I at one point went 8k miles before an oil change was done and I was like, "look ****ers, I brought this in before to you guys fix it before it came to this and all your dumbass mechanic said was it was dirt on my belt" so needless to say, they covered it under warranty.
