Default Post your 993TT "Milestones" here!

This thread is for those who enjoy driving their 993TT's! Snap a photo of your odometer at significant mileage markers and say what's currently going on with your car!

I didn't see a thread out there for our higher mileage 993TT "Milestones", but did read of some posts with guys with cars over 100,000 and even 200,000.

I'm posting this because my recently acquired 9937TT hit a nice "Milestone" today, 75,000. I bought the car in August with 73,202 and it runs strong and beautifully. I am diligently sorting the car out, so far I have:

Put on new tires,
New front Walrod bushings and alignment.
Changed all fluids, and
Recharged the A/C.
Had a loose headliner professionally repaired,
Paint-less dent repair on a small ding.

I am in the process of:

Having Bilstein PS6's installed next week (wish I would have done this with the bushings, due to having to have the car realigned. (Ouch $200 for an alignment!!)).

Not bad for a car with 75,000 miles on her!

By the time it rolls over to 135,000, I'll have forgotten to take a photo, so here is where Rufus is today.
Odometer is in MILES, speedo reads in KPH.

Default one of my 993 TTS. The other has more!

High mileage for a TTS.... But I drive them! IF only I could get some trusted members to drive both of them side by side and I could follow... Oh baby!

I love seeing very high mileage cars. Someone on here was selling a 964 a couple years ago, IIRC it had close to 600k miles. Rennlist member T2 has a 996t with over 300k also. There was a recent article on Porsche's Panorama with a 300k mile 993.

There was a thread about a Dr who daily drives his 993TT and has over 300,000 miles on it. Does anyone remember where the thread is? Any other record range 993 TTs out there?
