I'm looking at an '06 car with the following data
Type 1: 47,710
Type 2: 7,069
Type 3: 1,331
Type 4: 305
Type 5: 7
Type 6: 0
It is CPO with warranty until Dec 2012. The dealer said they'd make the report part of the sale paperwork (I saw that in a previous thread on PPI'ing CPO cars).
I'd like to keep my next car for at least 6 years, maybe 10+. It would start as a street car, then maybe migrate to light track duty. Are these numbers insane, or what? I imagine the conservative folks on this board would tell me to run away, and also those with little knowledge. I'm interested in hearing from anyone who knows more about this than my wife...
TIA
Jack

Why putz around with a car like this one, that's been beat to pi$$. There are HUNDREDS of 2006 911's for sale. Keep looking. You will find a better car.

I've been putzing around for months, trying to figure out which car to buy. I like this one with all the options that I want at a fair price, with CPO. Although there are hundreds of cars available, when you prefer one with sport seats, PSE, Chrono, the selection thins out quick.
I know, I know, I need to move on, but I am now really hating this car search and would just like to get it over with at this point...
Ugh

I just had a new engine put in my '05S after the D-chunk problem. I asked about a break-in period and they say there isn't one. The engines are bench tested at 7800 RPM for 30 minutes to test and break-in the engine.
7800 falls in the middle of range 3. Thirty minutes @ 7800 equals 234000 rotations or 702000 ignitions. However they are logged that is a lot of "over-revs".

This is all total BS. There is always a break-in period. And Stuttgart stopped doing bench testing engine run-ins many moons ago.

I think the single ignition in ranges 4 through 6 never happened. We've seen single ignitions in the upper ranges before, and can't figure out how that could be. Maybe the 3 ignitions in range 3 are accurate. The range 1 and 2 ignitions are probably accurate. This read-out wouldn't concern me. Buy it if you like it otherwise.

So I think the answer is no, unless maybe when you're not in gear, and over=rev it in park or nuetral.
