997 High Mileage Club

It's amazing how the battery in my neighbor's Honda lasted 11 yrs and the battery in my wife's Subaru still works after almost 8.5 yrs but mine only lasted 4.5 yrs.

I have 41,000mi on my '05 Cab S, which I've owned ~ 12 months. So far, pretty pleasant experience considering its a performance vehicle.
Replaced:
* Leaky water pump at 40,000mi
* Cab-hydrol. piston (& cab-motor...which was 99% my fault) - 35,000mi
* Battery -35,000mi
I will soon replace the 'sticky' radio dials and floor mats.
I was pleasantly surprised with the much-lower-than-expected bill for my 40,000 mile "major service" at E.P.E. in Natick.

'07 997S coupe 61k miles and counting every day. Only issues (warranty) were a bad horn and PSM module very early on. Street and track use. Used 1 qt of oil every 10k miles until we switched to 15-50 and now doesn't use any. Great car!

My 07 Targa had a faulty horn too. They said there was a bad batch for part of that year. Thanks for the oil tip.

Wow! And I though my 06 with 8k was low! In my defense, however, it only had 2500 when I got it a year ago. So I'm doing my best!
