Hi all,
I own a 2005 FX35 Sport AWD that I purchased with 22,000 miles on it in '05. Now I have 109,000 and still runs awesome, and still looks really clean. Recently threw some money into it to get everything looking like-new again - seat vinyl replaced with factory matching Willow leather. Nice to know it won't ever rip again (despite years of conditioning and taking care of the interior - as we all know the vinyl in 1st gen's will inevitably rip no matter what you do). Also got the stock 20's refinished recently - all curb rash removed and repainted in metallic gun metal with automotive clear. Debated getting new wheels, but I like the look of the stocks, so saved some money there. Got all dents removed at paint-less dent repair shop too. Love my FX! Plan on hanging on to it for several more years as it has been a very reliable ride. Found this site from the thread about painted stock wheels.
