Default Highest mileage 944?
Just saw this local craigslist ad -- it might be the highest mileage 944 around at 381k.

http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/car/394759173.html

Anyone seen (or own) a higher mileage car?

Mine says 590,000 but it's way busted. I wouldn't trust odometers on these cars.

I have no idea what the mileage is on mine.

I have 195k on mine. Can these engines really run that long without spinning rod bearings or anything??!

He kept track that well? (An 84 would need to roll over 10 times for 1 mil)

I agree with whoever said the odos can't be trusted. Someone here said their 100k dial caught and turned every mile. (For every mile you put on, you'd go from 80,000 to 180,000 to 280,000)
