Hi, MassScoot,
I also have a 2012 300GTi, black, 5600 miles on the odometer. Bought it new in April of '14. They don't sell too fast out here in New Mexico!
Out here in the world of constant sunshine, I don't put mine up for the winter...but I do replace the oil filter each time I change the oil. I think it's a little cost to benefit ratio! And, I change the oil every 3.000 miles.
Have a nice summer of riding up there.
Regards,
