Going to enjoy some Fall runs through PA, NY and New England before then... and she'll probably have about 45,000 miles on her when all is said and done.

Very nice! I took a drive with my 911 last month through the backroads of New Canaan and Greenwich, Connecticut. Great places for a Porsche to unwind.

About 19,300 miles on my 2011 C4 and they've been great miles. Bought the car in February with 13K miles on it, so I've been busy. Just put new rear tires on (Bridgestone Potenzas) and it feels fantastic. Went on some great Massachusetts back roads for a drive today!

53,500 on my 2005 C2. Took it on my longest trip during ownership by far a couple weeks ago up to Monterey car week. LA up PCH to Carmel, around the peninsula for 3 days and down the 101 back to LA. 800 miles total in 3 days. On the way back I ran with a 458 for about 45 minutes averaging 110 mph!

28,200 on my 2009 C2S PDK. Just about 4k have been my miles. Looking forward to more. Lucky to be here in CO where the mountains offer lots of good twisties. Straight line speed is fun, but I'm finding the real joy is in the turns.

Post your results when you get them. I'm betting they will be pretty good.

I saw a 2009 C2S Cab at a dealer in Dallas the other week which had 154k miles! Just one data point, but a good sign nevertheless for longevity of the DFI motor. Car sold quick too.

39,250 miles on my 2005 997. The most enjoyable of all cars i've owned. LN retrofit of IMS has given me the confidence to go anywhere with the car. Hope to put on many more enjoyable miles.

Stopping at Lime Rock is the gravy. Love that area.
