I see you're rapidly clocking on the miles...I'll keep mine in the garage for you when you require #5 next year.

Other than the broken-flexpipe exhaust drone, the rattling sway bar, and the cacophonous Blizzaks, the car is a smooth quiet dream on any decent road.
It is getting more work.

3/18/21 69,097 miles, got both low-beam bulbs replaced. ($133)
And the broken fender liner and front plastic underbody valance wired-tied/screwed/rigged back into place.
During the bulb replacement it was discovered that the driver-side lamp assembly holding the high beam bulb was broken, and a repair rigged to hold the bulb in place; the 'cap' was not reinstalled.
Good thing I have a spare car for parts.......
My mileage with Mobil premium hovered in the 24--25MPG range, so I tried Shell's 93 octane. Nope, same. Again filled it with Gulf 89, and 228 miles consumed 7.413 gallons. Nice.
