This is GREAT!
This is why I bought my F , although there are faster cars out there in the price range I LOVE TOYOTA reliability.
100K! AMG or M can not make it there without a host of issues.
If you would be so kind as to tell us what are the things you have had to replace or work that needed to be done?

LOL...those antics will have to stop when I'm on the bike. Which it will.
--Oil changes - every 5000 miles using OEM filter
--Engine air filter changed at 20,000 miles to K&N. K&N filter is cleaned out every 20,000 miles
--Cabin air filter replaced every 20k miles with a carbon cabin filter (i don't like a stinky car)
--Replaced factory battery with Optima Yellow Top deep cycle battery
--I'm currently on my 3rd set of front brake rotors (2nd was OEM, 3rd Centric Parts)
--Rear brake rotor will be replaced this weekend for the 1st time
--Replaced front brake pads 3 times (2nd was OEM, 3rd Hawk Pads)
--Replaced rear brake pads once at 75k miles using Stop Tech Pads
--Spark plugs replaced at 89k miles (should have replaced it at 60, but they looked fine)
--water pump replaced at 87k miles
--rear main engine seal replaced at 87k miles (because I was replacing the transmission at the same time)
--sunroof motor replaced under warranty around 45k miles
--rear subwoofer blew out around 75k miles...replaced it with an Alpine D-Class amp and 10" box in the trunk.
And the big one........
--transmission replaced at 87k miles.
Other than that, the car has been great.

GT3 as a weekend warrior and ISF as a daily is exactly what I'd want. I hope that is something you can work out! After a few more years my plan is either to sell or trade my ISF for the newer ISF or GSF depending on what is released and when, or keep my ISF and drive it in to the ground, and pick up some sort of P-car as a weekend warrior. A Cayman S is most likely, but a GT3 is still a possibility.
What's the new toy?

Ha, i'm at 82k, but i was about 70ish at the same time as you.. Damn you drive alot!
I also have a Street Triple... Be careful mang... It was my first bike and I went lapping at Thunderhill and broke my collar bone and 3 ribs... Wasn't fun, and I wasn't jack assing around just not enough experience on a bike and shifted to a wrong gear coming out of a turn.

They didn't tell me what was wrong. From what it seems...dirty oil. I never replaced the trans oil because our owners manual says it never needs to be replaced. I asked about half a dozen dealerships, and all of them said it should be replaced at 100k miles. I was getting ready to do the service too...then the transmission goes kaput. This weekend, I'll be replacing the transmission oil...we'll see how dirty it ends up being after about 13,000 miles.

yeah I read that list and was like WHOA! when i saw the tranny shot at 87K.
So maybe you may want to replace the tranny fluid also...so this doesnt happen to you.
other than that everything else was standard maintenance.. (the sunroof motor is a small one) but hey cant beat that
