Been looking at some new tires too b/c mine are bald but I dont really have any money to change them right now
I think the auto is the only weak point of that car. You have a newer version of the same F22 engine I have in my car, so with regular timing belt changes and oil changes, it should just be getting broken in at around 200,000.

BTW, I finally scored four used tires off Craigslist for $10 each. Two are a matched pair with 50% tread, so I'm back on the road and should hit 316,000 tomorrow. Engine fired right up and ran beautifully after sitting for over three months.
