Sure thing here you go. Maintenance costs are much higher than a normal car, but not back breaking. 5-10k would be something very major. Typical annual costs 1-2k and three year major service in the range of 3-6. If anything breaks however it can range wildly. Worth every penny for the joy it brings me.

She is a beauty. $8k - $10k for 30k timing belt service and other preventive maintenance since the engine and the gearbox need to be dropped. Thanks for sharing.

on a 360 the engine does not come out for the major service. that was the 355.

360 major belt service runs 3-6k maximum. 6k if you go through the dealer.
