I daily mine but I work from home most of the time so I only drive about 4000-5000 miles per year running errands and pleasure drives when the traffic eases up. I also live in Florida so I can drive it year round. I see no reason this car will not last 150,000+ miles as long as you maintain it properly.
Many folks on here are true enthusiasts and enjoy maintaining their vehicles. That said, most go overboard with the maintenance but as long as you follow the factory recommended list and schedule you should be good to go.
I think the issue you will have with that kind of mileage is the operating cost of fuel and tires. If you switch form the F1 Supercar tires to something with more tread life that would help. I think you only get like 10-12k miles out of these Goodyears depending on how you drive. I can literally see the fuel gauge needle move as I drive.
