So far there’s subscriptions for cruise control, adaptive beams, various navigation options, apple/google integration and my favorite, dual-zone climate.

    Meant to mention those and forgot! As long as it’s got some kind of decent guarantee that’s a great way to go. Should be plenty of them out there, as I’d imagine most of those vehicles end up getting totaled in accidents of varying severities rather than dying from engine problems. I do believe the Japanese engines are available as a result of their having stricter emissions requirements, BTW…

      I was under the impression that it was because of expensive inspection requirements based on mileage (or maybe age, sources I found are unclear) that cause a lot of cars to get parted out at 100,000 km regardless of their actual condition.

        Could be - tbh it’s been a minute since I looked into those. Either way, a low mileage pull is an excellent option and will last the life of the car if well maintained…
