Apart from the rattles, everything else you mention is part and parcel of owning a performance sportscar. What do you mean by 'got hit' with service and maintenance. These are fundamental to keeping the car running.
Tyres? The are a consumable (and essential) item on any car.
Sounds to me like you maybe weren't mentally prepared for owning a high performance car.
I have also serviced my car twice in 12 months and replaced all 4 tyres recently. Didn't even give it a thought.
Stone chips and dings will happen, but a big part of this is how you care for the car. Where you park it? Where you leave it on the street? Do you take it to shopping centres (big no no for me).
Hope you can put these things aside and start enjoying the experience because they are amazing cars.
