I am not sure what you mean. The cars are designed to go this speed, so ...
Sure, there will be slightly more wear and tear, since prolonged operation at higher RPM, but oils these days are really good. So as long as you stay on top of the maintenance I don't see any major downside.
If anything fuel and tire costs are the main issues.
