I DD 300+ ml/wk, 39k miles in 2.5 years = ~16k/yr.

In almost 2 years of ownership, I have the S at 11,8XX miles currently. It hasn't been driven by me this entire month. My dad drove it for about 5-10 miles the other day for fun.

In my first year of ownership, I only had 3,7XX miles on the car. It amazed people that I drove the car (seemingly) a lot but didn't put well over 10K in the first year.

I lived at the Dragon this summer, but I didn't have the s.

I did have an 84 Gti and a bike to ride though.

Mostly I just worked.

I'm on track to put 20k-25k the first year I've owned it.

Still look forward to driving it every day.

I've had mine for 5 years and it just broke 30k miles. It is stored 6 months every year. It does have close to 100 autocrosses on it. Does that make up for the low miles?
