I have the same question,but for the most part I think it will wear out certain engine parts (rod bearings,injectors,etc.) definitely quicker at high speeds particularly w/ the 4 cyl. If you notice at 85mph your tachometer is at 3-3.5 and your engine is roaring! It doesnt have but 4 gears so if you havent reached 85 gradually you're stressing the engine. You should barely hear the engine when coasting and allow it to roar for only seconds at a time for passing opponents on the road.It can handle it now because of the newness but make sure you KEEP UP THE MAINTENANCE if you want to continue.......I've been to 125mph in the 4cyl, I know its wrong but wooohooo!!!!!

Carbon/soot in my exhayst pipe by g6soot

I have 3.5 and my milage is at 22 mpg. I can put my finger in the exhause pipe and it is covered with black soot. I have been to the dealer and have been told that everything checks out OK. In all my years black soot in the exhause is a sign of a rich mixture of fuel. Has anyone out there have an idea what steps i need to take to correct this problem..

Almost any decent auto shop has an exhaust gas analyzer nowadays.
 
If you think the dealer is incorrect, find an independent shop with a decent reputation and have then do a quick analysys. That should answer your question...
