Default Who has the highest mileage 993 here

With the post about the 700 mile 911S, I thought we could swing the other way and see the high mileage 993's on the board. Mine now has 101,000 miles on it and running perfect.

65,500
33,000 when purchased

Still average about 6000 miles per as a 4th vehicle in the household.

No daily driver---work from the house and whatever Im feeling like that day is what I drive.

There's someone on here with a one-owner 993 with something like 225K miles on it. Hopefully he'll chime in....

That is promising to hear. I know there is a fellow 993TT'er that has close to 190K on his with original engine and clutch I believe.

Almost 100k on original motor and clutch.

Could you really high milers, inform us as to engine work done and clutch replacement, and at what mileage they occurred?
Give me inspiration and peace of mind!

Around 82k, 25k of them mine over three years. I need to try harder. The car runs better every year the more and harder I drive it.

Mine is my daily driver and just turned 113,000 yesterday. PO put a new clutch in at 80K miles and I did the usual alternator and steering rack replacement around 100K miles plus a new A/C compressor at 110K miles. The old compressor was noisy and upon inspection had NO OIL so it probably would have gone longer with proper maintenance.

Otherwise, she just passed CA Smog last week (despite bad plug wires to be replaced this spring) and runs great. The best part is that none of the newer, faster, shiny cars out there has been able to lure me away from this awesome machine.

There was a thread on this not too long ago. Mine is about 93k now. Had a clutch at 60k, steering rack at 85k. No valve work yet. No other big mechanical jobs...

The dealer I bought it from said his 150k mile cab was on the original clutch and no engine work.

112K, no major engine work, original clutch, rack at 65K, alt at 80K, compressor is noisy when wet and cold but still dry (knock on wood).

Factory shocks in front (for one more day 8^)
