Has anyone passed the 10k mile mark on their F-Types yet?
I picked mine up mid-June 2013 and currently have 9,550 miles on it. I feel like I have used it fairly often, considering that I also use my SUV and my wife's Accord, my work being a very short distance away (less than 2 miles) and a looong Chicago winter. I have not had any roadtrips with her yet...the longest one way trip was @ 60 miles away.
I have noticed recent tire wear towards the outer 1/3 of my rear tires (not sure if putting spacers on this spring has contributed to any extra wear, as they are hub-centric). The only issue I had was the darn center storage console opening when locking the doors, but that was quickly fixed last summer.
I definitely feel that I am breaking the car in well..for instance, today was a cold, rainy day here in Chicago and I choose to drive the F-type all over the lace doing misc stuff (@ 40 miles in total) instead of my Hummer H2.

13K+ miles. Check Engine light just came on again. I've had 3 O2 sensors replaced, may demand they replace the rest of them. (Are there 6?)
Handling has gotten a tad loose, but I know the tires are down 2-3 pounds due to colder weather (will reinflate when I wash it later today.)
Did a track day in it this summer, which was awesome. 4K of the miles came from my annual summer MA-MI trip. I'll take a look at the tires.

DjS; I was at dealers a few weeks ago taking to a new XJ owner who was complaining of having been foe multiple check engine lights and o2 sensor replacement. He was considering asking the same thing. ( I Hit the thanks button, instead of quote on your post)
3500 miles in 1.5 months and I don't daily drive! Been driving this thing like crazy. My 991 I did 13,500 miles in 19 months. Ftype is just too fun to drive. Definitely getting my money's worth.
