61K nothing outside normal maintenance.
No track. All street, 70% town, 30% road trips of around 2500 miles. 100% fun.
Like your avatar, that's my only chime in.

sold my '07 in Nov. with 64,000 miles on it. Nothing major - clutch slave was the biggest thing I think. Great car.

I have 56k on mine. I have a CPO warranty and the mechanical issues since I have owned the car (I bought it with 38k miles) were the clutch accumulator, Coolant hose leak (minor), Rear deck lid and front hood switch and an issue with the clutch fork (which they dropped the trans to fix). Other issues were PCM unit (replaced because CD wouldn't eject properly)) carbon door storage covers (discolored) carbon e brake (carbon cracked) Warranty paid for everything.
Get a car with a CPO if you can (if your in the market for one). Even though I haven't had any major issues all those repairs would have to come to around $12k (at the stealer.) The warranty costs $3200.. Those carbon pieces are insanely expensive.. Just those door storage lid covers are $800 a piece. God knows how much a new PCM unit would cost out of pocket...
I would buy a well maintained high mileage 997 TT in a second. They are amazing and very reliable..

Coolant leak, believe it was the pump.
All repairs listed above were covered under warranty.
Currently experiencing inconsistent pedal pressure in clutch, taking it in the week.
Absolutely LOVE this car. After I drive the wheels off this one another 911 variant will be next.

Well I've only put about 30 miles on my 997.1TT so far ;-)
Bought it on Monday, it has 44,000 miles on it and 11 months of warranty left ('07).
By the way it looks and drives I would've believed it had 15,000 miles on it though. Given all I've read here about the Metzger engine etc. I'm not too worried about the miles.

Just turning 25k and so far a new battery a few years ago (car sat for 2 years) and had my turbo's lubed (whatever that means) Other than regular maintenance such as oil changes, no issues what so ever. Looking forward to the next 25k

I have a manual car with 43200 on the clock, bought it 3 months ago with 38800. It was tuned (flash + exhaust + springs) since it was 1000 old. Clutch with flywheel were changed (to stock parts) about 2000 miles before I bought it (all that torque in the middle of the rev range). Since I've bought it I had to change the clutch accumulator (not covered by 3rd party warranty) and Pentosin mail reservoir in the engine (covered by 3rd party warranty, though I have to pay some). Otherwise it runs great.
