You can't compare the longevity of a sports car to a honda accord. They are built for two completely different purposes.

The sports car will always require extra maintenance and cost to upkeep. This is what you bought it for and what you're paying for. You're trading your reliability and low maintenance cost for performance on the road.

Conversely, the Accord is heavily indexed on reliability, affordability, and safety, not performance.
