Who has the most miles on their 997TT?

With the new turbo technology, I am curious how reliable the new 997TT is?

How many miles does everyone have on the 997TT?

Any technical issues with the car?

Mine is on order for December delivery.

Something on the right shock tower that makes a clunk when turning sharp back and forth, like doing a 3 point turn. The part is coming in from Germany. The car is OK to drive though.

Porsche says every 20,000 miles. I'm not sure about that...seems awfully long.

thats insane that the first service is due on 20K miles??? I noticed new cars these days have a much longer period before 1st service is due. My ML500 is due on 10k miles for oil change

Must be...you're 10k, my Range Rover is 15k and now Porsche is 20k. Next we'll see Ferrari at 25k or something.

I have two track days on mine so I had them check all fluids and change the oil and filters when it went in for the clunk sound.
