If you take it to a dealer I am sure you will get the works. I did plugs, oil filters and air cleaners on my 07. The mechanic recommended the plugs not due to miles but time. When they came out he did say they looked fine. Check brake pads and tires for wear or dry rot. The manuel has a list of items for your milage/year.

The original ultra high performance tires most likely will never go 37K miles even driven by ole ladies. So statistics alone would indicate they are not the first set. I am lucky to get the average they way I drive and btw 150mph the other day with wife and daughter onboard but had the top up.

They will check your break hoses also. That will need to be done. It's either 5 years or at 35,000 Kiel. Also, have them check the play on your wheel bearings, these are really heavy cars, plus AWD and these things do give. Other than that they run like an Abram tank.😉
