lets see those high mileage 911s!!!
a previous post has inspired me...lets see those high mileage 911s...has to be 250K plus...
lets the see the good, the bad, AND the ugly. i'll start with my good lookin 85 targa with 270K-300K? miles.  added bilstein sports, turbo tie rods, corner balanced, reupholstered seats with german vynl (best decision EVER) next: a/c, strut brace

I would consider high mileage over 150K since many American cars never make it that far and look as good as a 911.

My 1987 Carrera has 265,485 km (165,000 miles) on the original motor and trans. I am looking forward to reaching 250-300,000 miles before it needs a rebuild--I hope...
I just snapped this photo today after returning home from a Mulholland Hwy/Decker Canyon run into Malibu--Fun+ Mike

Mileage? Dunno. Original speedo said 430k, my guess is 230k. Does not matter as everything has been seen to and she drives very well.

It is good to see so many Carreras living long untouched lives. My '84 Cab just rolled over 88K. I have had it six years and it had 41K when I bought it, so if my math is right, I wont be doing major work for at least 15 years!!!!
I am about to do a valve adjustment, though, and if it is like my plumbing skills, something unanticipated will break.

At only 153k I guess mine is just a baby compared to some of your cars, but since my previous 90 C4 only had 43k when I sold it 12/05 this seems high to me.
