Posted the above of my C4S Cab in January 2015 (page 15 of this thread with pics) when she was just over 106k miles of age and last night reached a landmark 110k so thought it picture worthy - something satisfying capturing that moment.









And a pic of my car at the Indy along with a 944 (??) Martini track car i've become quite a fan boy of.

 

Love my 996 C4S. Have 95,000 KM's, daily driver and fantastic in the snow and winter. I don't drive more then about 12-14,000 KM a year so for a daily driver it's great for me. With snow's and stick, I have better luck in the snow than my wife's 2014 Pathfinder. Started it in - 18C the other day!

Also run a VF Engineering Supercharger V3 on this car. One of my colleagues winter car is a 997 TT, his summer car is a Lotus.....Enjoy

 

100k on my 02. It's not worth anything to sell right now, so it's a keeper until i get the itch to buy a tt.

 

Engine operating hours counts not miles. A car doing 100k miles in the city is not the same a highway driving. I have 90k miles on my 2002 C2 and just replaced the original clutch, IMS was in perfect condition but upgraded for the LN ceramic. RMS was original and never leaked but replaced ( 997 style). My alternator quit @ 88k miles and my coolant tank cracked around 60k miles. Brake pads lasted 90k and we're replaced yesterday.

 

YOU! I follow you on IG, love the drive by videos and the guitar...

Car is brilliant man.

Se�n

 

I am now at 138400 miles on my 2002 996 C4 Cab.
Still driving it daily , even in freezing conditions.

There is no substitute

 

Not too high but I recently turned 95,000 in my '99.

 

WOW that is impressive. I get about half of that out of mine on the back and even less on the front. I do canyon runs like its my job. I bet I could burn throw a set in 10 days if I ran canyons all day. LOL


But none the less very impressive congrats.

 

Before someone else comments I omitted "miles", that's 95,000 miles not claiming 95,000 or even 9,500 rpm.

 

Time for an update?

1. Car info (year, model)
02 Boxster 2.7l 5-speed.
03 996 Turbo 6-speed.

2. Years of ownership
15 years for the Boxster. (Turned 15 years old this Jan.)
6 years (approx) for the Turbo. (Bought used June 2009.)

3. Mileage on car
308K Boxster.
151K Turbo (141K I put on since June 09).

4. Care/maintenance religious practice
Oil/filter changes every 5K miles. In the last year or so switched from Mobil 0w-40 to Mobil 5w-50 (not a typo for 15w-50!) year 'round. Why? Because it doesn't get very cold where I am while it does get into the triple digits in the warmer months and I just felt the 5w-50 oil was a bit better suited to the climate/ambient temperatures here where I live/drive.

Still have other services done when due and of course take care of issues when the come up.

Still avoid high RPMs until engines fully up to temp.

And I still drive the cars. A lot.

 

My 06 C4S cab has 87k on her. Runs like dream, no major repairs, good maintenance regiment and driven hard every now and again. Don't baby these cars, they're designed for the autobahn and us Americans tend to be too gentle with them. Great cars run great. IMHO

 

here's my daily driver... 2001 carrera 4. bought it back in august 2016. just turned 120k a few weeks ago. only had it for 10k miles, just did second oil change last week. still on original IMS and radiator! 😃😃👌
