This thread and especially this post makes me happy. I've been thinking about picking up a used Cayman or Boxster and was worried about how well these cars handle high miles. Now I wouldn't feel as bad buying one with 30k+ miles on it.

Plus I've always done my own mods, so its good to know the cars are fairly easy to work on. Gonna try and not mod the P-car too much if I get one, maybe just wheels and suspension, possibly exhaust. Mods are just tooo much on these cars. A nice exhaust cost almost as much as my entire supercharger kit on my '03 Mustang GT lol.

Some amazing mileage stories here! While not quite on par with some of the others, I've racked up just under 10,000 miles in the first 6 months I've owned my CS. They've been 10,000 of the best miles of my life

I have 24k on my 02 Boxster. I have put about 2k in the past year since I bought it. I only get to drive it once or twice a month if I'm lucky.

Hi All

Should introduce myself

I have a late '01 986S with 114K on the clock now. I bought it in August with 104K miles, having had a new engine and gearbox at 100k!!
The 10K I've done since August have mainly been track miles, doing 8 circuits here in the UK and a couple of trips into Europe to do Spa and Nurburgring.

'Permagrin' hasn't left my face

[quote=lithium1330;2609068 has 190k miles (including 10k track/autox miles) on his '98 Boxster: avg 16k miles/yr. And I think he (his car) won the zone 12 of the PCA autox this year - didn't even have to do the last run of the season. Can you say... what RMS issue?

That was a couple of weeks ago
I'm at 192,000 and counting.
Still on the original clutch and most of the original suspension.
No RMS or IMS troubles.

Happy Boxstering,
Pedro

What do you got for the car? 23k? I mean because I have never seen a Cayman with so many miles!

Sorry. Only 17k original miles on my '02 S "garage princess". However, all of the mods have resulted in a million miles on my wallet !
