OT a little, but why not a fan of PCCBs?

They're incredible IMO

I am only at 10K miles but purchased the car 9 months ago with 3K on it so I am certainly driving it. Like others posted, I just keep reminding myself I bought the car to drive it. My first drive and I was hooked. My first track day and I was giddy! It is worth every penny to drive this car and enjoy it completely. I see th cost as written off since it is the perfect car I want to drive for the rest of my life. Maybe someday I will buy other garage queens, this 991.2 GT3T is being driven!!!

Chris Harris (Top Gear) posted on twitter a video showing the mileage on his Touring at 40,000 miles. Some guy in Europe supposedly has even higher mileage!!

Nice work boys. So much enjoyment from this group vs. all the worriers who won’t drive/track/put miles on their cars. Get out and drive!

You know what’s sad, there’s 120 .2 GT3 for sale and the average mileage on them is a whopping 5k miles, for a car that’s over 3 years old. That’s about 130 miles PER MONTH. I drive about 1-1.5k a month easily. Buy the car and enjoy it and life, because you never know when your time on earth runs out.

Amen to that. Just saw a post on my LinkedIn feed, guy is 62 and just was announced he had terminal cancer. Put things into perspective. I surely don’t want to be on my deathbed wishing I could have driven my 993 more.

This happened last month. I am in the US less than 40% of my time and this is my DD. Planning to put 100K miles on this thing. Stopped at the dealer yesterday and they wanted to buy it back. Nope !

bought mine last March ('20) for 170 (sticker 179) with 4500 miles. Sold it in May of this year for 195 at 10,500 miles. Great car. Great deal for me and for the buyer I sold it to.

My 2018 has around 43,000 miles. The first 41,000 was pre-COVID-19 and I was driving it ~75 miles/day. The miles dropped like crazy when the pandemic hit and I bought an Alltrack as my commuter car...

Any issues in all those miles?

This bloke across the pond has broken 50K KM and has his sights set on 60K next. Worth a follow :

When I first got it, they had to replace the water pump. It started running too cool. Since then, it's been perfect.
