987.2 Spyder owners, what are your total miles?
Just wondering what the low to high range mileage range is for Rennlist owners after 8-9 years of the Spyder being on the road?
My 2011 has just over 7600 miles on it. I probably averaged 1500 miles per year for the first 5 years of it's life.
Due to changing lifestyle circumstances the last 4 years have averaged closer to 300 per year, although it's just as much fun to drive as early on.
Mine has been very trouble free. Just one freak episode of the horn mechanically sticking in the on position. Had to pull a fuse to kill the horn.

I just purchased this 2011 Spyder pictured in the foreground locally with 1,300 miles. She is an absolute dream to drive and feel fortunate to be her next steward. I have driven 300 miles in two months and had her wrapped with film. I have named her "RECLUSE" and she is pictured here during a local meet up in the Seattle area.

28k. I’ve had three road trips back and forth from Seattle to Monterrey. The last round trip was almost 2,400 miles zig zagging back and forth on the backroads. Truly epic.

These cars are so racing inspired do you ever fee the need to do a track event, when I bought my first Porsche a 2008 CS I rescued it from a owner that had never taken outside unless 72 or warmer he lived in Michigan, it had never been washed, he did not want to get it wet, it had only been dusted off in a temperature controlled garage never being parked outside only driven then parked indoors.

2012 with 27K miles on it. I have done 3 single-day HPDE's in it over the last two years. I would like to do 1/year in it to keep me reminded what the machine was built for, without beating on it.

2011 3 pedal with ~15,300 miles now. Had about 14,7 on it in July when I got it. I might get lucky with one more drive but snow has already landed here twice and I can’t risk mag chloride contamination. . California cars are just sooooo clean underneath.
