Wow. There are some real stunners in here, you'd think some were brand new! It pleases me to see these cars with this type of mileage. Brand new member here, first post. Looking at a 997.1 tomorrow with 110k miles, if everything looks and feels OK, PPI to follow on Tuesday. We will see what happens, and hopefully I am able to join you all with my first 911 and post up my own pictures.
There's so much about your car that I really like, I'm not sure what my favorite element is... the color, the side skirts, front lip, wing, painted 3.8 on the wing...but I think the ghosted side stripes are the best
Stunning example and basically my fantasy spec when I think about how I'd have ordered my Turbo new. Well done and you're doing the high mileage club proud!
Beyond standard maintenance I have replaced ...
Front strut upper mounts (geometry issue on AWD)
Motor mounts (hardest version, tightened up the rear)
Transmission mounts (the OEMs look pathetic)
Front axle boot (chip seal damage)
Front computer (weird failure)
Frunk struts (to support hood protector)=
Slightly off topic but with your replacement items listed and the separate water pump thread going, are you still on the original water pump at 139K miles? Or do you consider the pumps standard maintenance? If yes, how many have you been through?

Still on the original water pump.
Standard maintenance has been oil, filters, tires, brakes, brake bleeds, and that's about it.
My current running costs not including gas, insurance, or registration are around 16 cents a mile. DIY helps!!!
