Well done! I'm almost there at 190k miles. Will be adding some more heading up to Caffeine and Carburetors on the 15th.

Well, technically, my engine has about 8k on a rebuild. Tranny never been opened up though (other than clutch/flywheel).
Ready for another 200k!

Good for you guys! I’m trying - I don’t know offhand of any higher mileage 964Ts but at 105,000 on my ‘91 Turbo I have a ways to go. Driving my car a ton (road Trip pics in 964T forum) but even at 5,000/yr it’s gonna take me a while!

Ahh, was waiting for you to check in Rob. Nice mileage total considering you live a wintery climate (as do I).

My mileage per year has slowed significantly since I moved to New England. My cabrio was my daily driver in California. I was near 200K when I moved here in 2005. Instead of averaging 15K per year, I'm down around 5K per year since my summers are split between the 964s (cabrio and coupe). Both cars hibernate for the winter and this gives me time to do any repairs/upgrade work done. Heated garages are critical in this climate for any wrenching.

Have a friend with a 930 that has over 1,000,000km. He bought it new and has owned it since the 70’s! Amazing story!
