A belated WELCOME TO THE FORUM !!!!!
This is my daily driver, 30 city miles round trip. It has 76k on it. And trust me, my eyes are wide open. Old car oil change $40, new car $130. Old car tires $200 a pair, new car $500 (getting new rears on Saturday). There are a lot of minor things wrong with it. I don’t care. I’m in heaven every time I touch the accelerator. It’s the car I always wanted. I just didn’t know it.
Oil changes : watch autozone, Advance, WalMart etc for specials on Mobil1 0-40, you can many times get the 5 quart jug with a free filter for $25 - $35.
Buy 2 of them as you will need 8 quarts.
You can also get a 'top-sider' oil extraction tool so you can do it all by just opening the hood.
Tires : you can get a pair of Nankang rears from discounttiredirect for $344.00 total.
fronts would be $308. Shipping is free, you would have to pay mounting and balancing somewhere.
