Default High Mileage TTs?

Who's got the most miles on their 993TT? I've heard of one with 87K, can anyone beat that? No JjayB you can't count track miles seven for one like dog years!

Are you refering to my car as a dog? Actually, I perfer to count hours on the motor. Its too easy to roll back the clock.

hopefully the engine wasn't a little frozen up or the valves from sitting so long with so little miles.
Do you know if he drove it like every month or something like that?
It's only a 96 though, not like a 86 Ferrari or something.
Awesome car, looks great in yellow

Get in touch with the 'Viper' and learn about the things that need to be done. Nice car-needs to be lowered.

It makes me happy to see that people are out driving these awesome machines! I know it is not a TT but I know a lady in NCR/PCA with a 944 Turbo S with 265K on it and he engine has never been split! Who says turbos have no longevity. Best wishes - Jay Gratton

His Father had the local ferrari dealer ship,plus a casino , so he had many play toys!...I just wanted it... Was worried about the low mi. but checked out ok and so far ok , with such low miles I felt as I was buying new in '97! Im on the road now, so no interior photos....Man I love driving it!! I was snowing as I left so a good time to leave.....
