How many miles have your 993 turbo's done?
 

Guys, I am thinking about buying a 993 Turbo, in Europe it is very difficult to find a car with low mileage for an acceptable amount of money.
For a car with a mileage of 100,000 kilometers or 62,000 miles, you also have to pay a lot, because around 180,000-200,000 euros, of course, the car has first paint.
What is your experience with the 993 turbo with such mileage?
I know it's important for a car like this to have a good service history.
Do you think it makes sense to buy a car with this mileage?
My 964 turbo now has 21,000km on it which is less than 13,000 miles and is in perfect condition.

thanks

60K here. No issues except what you would expect with a 27yo car…

50K here, just spent 2 days a few weeks back running the Ruchlos Rallye 3.

Paging msw, come in msw.............

150k. KM here
 

Bought well documented higher mileage example a few years ago. Nothing major yet other than things to be expected in a 25 year old car (suspension renewal, bushings etc). Car had been driven but also maintained. I don’t sense these cars are more or less brittle than any other 911.
The higher mileage also releases one from worrying about driving it too much…

102k miles

76k miles when I sold it last year - has been running very reliably over my 10 years of ownership (after addressing some issues upfront when I first bought it 11 years ago).

113K miles

105k

170k miles. Bought it 21 years ago as a daily. Now I’ve retired it but still a car of choice where speed and reliability are required on a long European run. With those miles, I can just drive it. I do look after it, though. Looks very smart for a 25k car let alone 170k. I’m the second owner and a friend was the first. Doesn’t cost a huge bundle to run now (say, 3000 miles and £2000 pa). Am very fortunate.

So, take your time to find a good one then jump at it!!

Fourtysomething...

Just drove mine from FL to Rennsport in Monterey & back. The only issue was a slipping clutch, easily fixed with a trans rebuild & new sachs 2.5 clutch. Otherwise it ran flawlessly. Saw a max (gps verified) speed of 176 on i15 headed in to Vegas, (lots of miles, lots of smiles)
