My 2014 daily driver is 3-months old today, and has approx 7,000 miles on the clock already, averaging over 2k per month or over 24k per year.

That brings up a good point, if I worked somewhere that was just 5-10 miles from my home, there would be a good chance my car would not be driven hard much at all with less opportunity to drive it hard.
I bought mine in Feb '12 brand new and I have 5600 miles on it now.

Which is great for a track car taking a lot of driver error out of the equation.
