73 000 km. RMS started leaking at 60 000 but is not dripping, so I left it unchanged since then. Coolant tank replaced at 50 000 km. Alternator replaced at 64 000 km. First clutch.

Bought my '99 with 19K on the clock...now has 23K. Used as a daily driver. Cllutch is engaging pretty far up, but isn't slipping...but will eventually need to be replaced....seems unreasonably early for a clutch...but other than that...no other issues.

My 99 has 30K miles and I have never been to the dealer except to have an alignment done. Few minor bugs I have fixed myself, but overall the car runs exceptionally well and it's a daily driver. (I only drive 5 miles back and forth to work.)

Here's my prediction - In a few years, we'll all look back and say, "Remember when you could get a great '99 996 for under $35k? That was the deal of the century!"

114K baby! Replaced the tranny at around 100K, other than that, mostly minor stuff (expansion tank, cam cover leak). hope to pass 200 with luck.
