    Spyder #1 - 2008 GS SM5 Premier Edition #1977. RIP after 80,000 miles.
    Spyder #2 - 2012 RT SM5. Traded in after 24,000 miles.
    Spyder #3 - 2015 F3 SM6. Put 13,000 miles on and sold it.
    Spyder #4 - 2017 F3 SM6. Too good of a deal to pass up!

    Let's hope that you didn't just jinxs yourself and that the next 10,000 are just as uneventful.

    There is a similar active thread going--but here is some more information. I have 11,000 miles on my 2010 RTS, (brought in for the clutch recall--1 day out of service). Put 20,000 miles on my 2008--5 speed, before trading it in--no problems with that spyder at all. Spouse has 16,000 miles on her 2009 SE5, had an initial computer glitch at 1000 miles--but the machine has run perfect from that time on. That makes 47,000 miles of combined Spyder riding with what I would call trouble free operation.
