Default 2007 GT3 - Questions?

Hi Guys,

Been reading about as much as I can on these awesome cars before I purchase a white 2007 GT3.

Fairly basic model, with the touring package (I think it's called - comfortable seats & no roll cage) and Sports Chrono. Only problem is the car has (what I'd think) fairly high miles for a performance car. It's got just over 40k miles.

I'm just wondering if there's anything I need to be worried about with these when they've got a few kms on them?

I know it's been overrevved once (which then broke some internal component for 'safety' I believe) about a year ago. That being said, the car seems like it's in great nick. It's got a full service history, and all maintenance and servicing has been carried out by Porsche.

Drives brilliantly, and I can't fault it.

Obviously I'm going to get a full inspection done by Porsche (including Comp test and Leakdown), but is there anything I should worry about on a higher mileage car?

FYI - It won't be a daily driver, will probably get a track day every few months, and definitely less than 6-7k miles per year.

Appreciate any feedback you can give!

Thanks!

LOL - Thanks guys! She'll get plenty of use - don't worry about that. Planning a big road-trip once I've picked her up.

Any ideas to my qs (I'd be very interested to hear from some higher mileage GT3 owners!)?

Cheers!
