Seriously, how many other cars can do this? ...easily reach and maintain 120mph with 200k orig. miles....and still look great doing it?

Joe,

Welcome to the 200k club..! Rumor has it 150+ is possible even in this club with unopened motors.

Now I would not attest to it, as Ron said... "I was in Church, and that would be illegal."

233,XXX and counting on mine....

Cheers,

Basically any well running 928 (any model year or tranny) will hit 120 with ease...S2's should hit 150 fairly easy with S4's in the 160's and GTS or GT's around 170....and thats a bone stock 10-25 year old car! My car absolutely flys past 140 with ease & it is 16 years old and nearly stock! It just seems so easy and effortless!

Looks like the Ferrari owner I mentioned is selling his 72,000 mile Spyder. I think that's the equivelant of a 200k 928.

Congrats Joe on reaching 200K!

Speaking of running out of road, if you head east out of Reno on 50 toward Austin there are some long stretches iout n the middle of nowhere. One of these days.....

Hwy 50 . . . BTDT. I got pulled over for speeding, 105 in a 55 in my 84 Corvette. Cop cut me a hugh break . . . 85 in a 55. $300 and I was on my way to Cali.

Isn't Hwy 50 the loneliness road in America?
