Glad I asked! I'm going to start saving now, haha! Did you do 30k and 60k servicing?

No. I bought the car 22 months ago at 59,000 and the 60,000 service had already been done. Before now, all I've done is bought a new battery, new tires, started using amsoil oil & the K&N air filter, a complete brake job and changed the transmission oil, and replaced both brake lights when one of them blew out. I've also clayed it a couple of times and waxed it several times, and washed it only by hand.

I'm assuming "new belts" is inclusive of the timing belt since the water pump was also done and the price point would indicate it...
Timing belt and water pump + idler pulley was around $980 quote from "stealership" when I did mine, so I had my local guys do it PLUS the other belts AND a COMPLETE front end brake job (calipers pulled down, cleaned and rotors/oem pads/flush-bleed) and JUST pads on rear, and my personal shop did the entire job for less than the dealership quoted for their more limited job.
Brakes work BETTER THAN NEW on my car ever since!

This is why I traded my Solara in, couldn't bear paying that kind of money. That's 4 car payments!
