646,914 miles is highly impressive but translated to kilometers it's 1,041,107 which is way cooler imho.

if memory serves, I particularly enjoyed T2's reference to his cars mileage relative to a possible moon shot.

I'm curious as to how a slightly modified TT would stand up to the test of time. 500hp numbers or so, nothing too far off stock numbers. Anybody here?

I believe t2 has upgraded turbos and is at or above 500hp with his 650k plus miles.

Dock has had his turbo modded for 10 plus years at 500 or above hp.

K9 has had his for a while too.

Ive had mine with umw tune and deletes for 2years now, ive rectified most maintenance issues over the past year since the tune.

500hp isnt much over the stock k16 power k24 can have a bit more hp.

If you have quality mods/tune and dont dig your car itll last a while.

My car has 110k miles on it currently and I'm shooting for 600whp when I upgrade the turbos.

That's got to be the most miles of anyone with an M96/M97 motor. Has it been replaced?

Same engine, burns no oil, gets great mileage. Changed oil yesterday, and set for another 10k miles ride!

IMS was changed, unnecessarily, at 340,000 miles.
