Not a race I'd want to enter, but entertaining to watch. They all appear to be barking mad.

That last km was 10 grand for sure. But the wheels were spinning for 10% of it so money well spent.

I felt somewhat similar when mine ticked over the 100k mark, but then remembered I'd put 20k on it in 6 months of driving and loved every minute of it Very different with the more mass produced models so appreciate the fact my perspective is different, but memories and experiences are worth more than $$ yet to be realized regardless of what you're driving.

“Not putting miles on your Ferrari is like not having sex with your girlfriend so she’ll be more desirable to her next boyfriend.” That is a quote from James ‘Jim’ Glickenhaus – a true petrolhead. http://www.motormorph.com/?p=4435

Excellent quote - I still don't feel any better when my 993 ticked over 90K last week.

Dougie is the only hard man not afraid to put on the K's...........

The great thing about not owning a 2 owner, NZ new, pristine 911 is that I can drive the pants off it and love every moment!

Note it is in "Miles"

Innate faith in 964 engineering! I took this photo of Kev Etches' 996 Cup Car block.

Looks like Lola and Herman will be lapping HD long after the 993s have retired

Funny when you look back though....

I bought the 964 Turbo with 3300km's on the clock and sold it with either 15,000 or 18,000km on the clock. I paid $90k for it and sold it for $92k (with a new set of pirelli's on it) and if I still had it today it'd probably have around 40,000-50,000km on the clock and would have depreciated bugger all over 5 years.
