That's impressive. Didn't it just need suspension stuff on top of the normal wear parts?

Great meeting you T2 at Palmer for Porsche on the Mountain this fall, was a fun day until hitting a deer in the Audi TT on the way home

On the bright side, at least you weren’t driving the Porsche…

Had I known either of you were going I would have gone, too. Perhaps next year.
I don't like deer either; I've killed two with the Corrado and one with the Jetta.

So this is an EPIC thread... Can we get T2's maintenance regime so I don't have to read about any more oil additives and bother sending oil samples to Blackstone??
(edit: I'm sure it's in here somewhere... I don't want to scroll up)

If he gets to 1,000,000 miles maybe Porsche will give him a new Turbo. That should get some media headlines at least.

Apparently, they're going to do a full restoration when he hits that target.

That's really a lot. I think I do 15,000 a year or so between 3 cars so I wouldn't be able to hit that in a lifetime of driving.

I'm coming in on 1,500,000 million miles over 4 trucks, plus another couple hundred on cars - since I got out of school in '98 - yes, a helluva lot of driving.
