Ha! I've got got you all beat so far! 230k showing on my '84. Of course, that odometer likes to stop for a while, work for a bit, and then sometimes jump waaay forwards. We're estimating that it really has somewhere between 160 and 180k miles. The odometer's climing my to-do list

He, what a bunch of teens 
.
311000 km (That would be something like 208000 miles, no?), and still looking pretty (www.porsche928.dk) and still getting 205kW at the wheels (see other post on dyno results).
Ok, it IS in need of a re-paint - hopefully next year - but there are not that many cars out there that'll look, let alone drive, like our 928's do after 16 years and 310KKm. At least not without a major restoration job.

Just rolled by 111,111 miles. It brought a tear to my eye... or maybe that was the wind coming through the sun roof. I passed that milestone while driving north through Franconia notch in the White Mountains of New Hampshire.
The 928 has outlasted the Old Man of the Mountain who tumbled this spring. He may have attained greater speeds than I can when he dropped though. Somebody want to do the math?

If the last PO wasn't being too optimistic on his driving after the odo broke, then <125K miles.
Slowly being cleaned up from POs' inattention. Runs great though.
