T2, i think that the factory should learn about your cars history and mileage
it would be a very interesting story to publish.
I’d also love to see some photos of the odometer

please post

T2 keep going when you hit 1,000,000 miles sell it back to Porsche or they should trade for a new Turbo.
Thanks for the update

Reading T2's posts gave me confidence to buy a Turbo with 108K miles. Saved me a lot of money.

Pretty incredible that a high performance engine can go the distance. Shows what a good design and proper maintenance will do. Can't imagine too many tt's having more miles. Can you share what/if any major work was needed?

Typical normal maintenance honestly. Engine was pulled at 383k for minor oil leaks....we took it apart for curiosity and found an engine with near zero wear on any parts....the looks on the mechanics faces was priceless...these cars are bullet proof if they're maintained and driven.
