Carrera GT 30000 kms

Dear all ,

I have a question for CGT owners .
Do you have any idea about carrera GT engine reliability .
I would like to buy one , that has currently 30000 kms and think I will do 15000 kms before to sell it .
The car is fully revised just now with new clutch and so on .
Price is currently good (addapted to the mileage ) .
I just want to now what about the engine , alla the carrera GT I can see have less than 15000 kms ....

Thanks guys !

A friend of mine has done around 26k km in his. No problems. These engines are very well built. Mine has done 11k km. No issues here (touch wood!)

Good luck with your purchase

I know somebody who put 175k kilometers on his CGT so far. Still the first clutch. I think it's not how much you drive , more how you drive it !

I would buy one with 15,000KM and drive it from there. Your paying premium for a car that has mileage that low and has more things need to be replaced or could fail.

If you want to sell it - let me know please. This car is without accidents etc.?

I would rather have C-GT and and a new boxster..than just a C-GT with 3000Kms..
