Default Are you High? (on miles)

Glad to see Porsche owners enjoying their cars without holding back.

Every effort must be made to resist mileage-phobia which makes owning these cars rather pointless...

My 06 arrived new in Oct 05 with 3miles, now the P-car has approx 9,500 miles. Only issue was AC leak and repaired under warranty. KNOCK ON WOOD!

2004 997 S. 17, 000 miles, coming up to third birthday - new engine due to bad ring and scored sixth bore, new exhaust (R side), replaced clutch hydraulics, replaced interior alarm sensor, new oil separators, resealed both mirror mounts, and fix to stop dash vibrating. Total bill over $ 30.000 so far - all under warranty. Love the car but bought an extended warranty!
