275K mile 993 cab!

Belongs to richardew over on Rennlist.

275K miles
2 repaints, 1 at 90K and another recently
Last clutch replacement at 90K at first repaint (185K miles on the same clutch, amazing!)
No major engine work.

...and it's a cab that he drives in the snow too.

Just goes to show that if you keep your Porsche nice and treat it with care, it will last. I can't say I know of any other sports car that can handle this kind of mileage without some kind of engine work.

That is amazing! Definitely makes me feel like a porsche is the right sports car for me (one I don't have to worry about racking up miles on).

Incredible. The 993 engines gotta be among the most reliable sports car engines ever made. Air-cooled ftw!

that's awesome. what is weird is it wasn't featured in one of the Christophe magazines articles a few months ago. There were several 200-350k 911's in it.

388k I think was the top car. Same owner from new.
