When you include stuff that falls under standard SVX maintenance, replacing the wheel bearings, brakes all around, and transmission ARE standard wear items for this car - i knew that before I bought it and suck it up
In response to the non-WOT crowd, I fully understand that every run up to 130mph is probably shaving years off the end, but its kinda like smoking; the last years are the wheezing, dying, crappy years anyway - so live for the present. have fun with what is a well-built reliable daily drivable car that sees 200+k regularly

Be very sure that I do not believe that WOT should hurt the car. Driving a car quickly does not constitute abuse. In a motor race one must drive to finish.
Maximum power can be utilized and maximum performance achieved, without the intent of damaging or abusing the machinery. However some of the antics portrayed display a complete lack of skill and or absolute stupidity. Children are inclined to break their toys.
