This includes everything other than fuel. Other than changing my oil, air filter, light bulbs, and power steering fluid, I don't do my own work. Labor rate ranges from 75-100/hr. I am often able to buy the parts from buymbparts, so that helps some.
Hoping to do better with my recently-acquired 91, but we'll see.
What have you found to be the cost per mile with yours?

I'm assuming your price of 15.722k includes the purchase price? 10k on parts and labor? I guess that equates to 1.67k a year over 6 years. I honestly don't think mine is that much, but I haven't ever kept that accurate of a total. Plus it helps that I only paid 1.4k to begin with.
