Post Post How Many Miles on Your Baby!

Well, as I look around in SoCal for nice 944s, i notice many are in the 150k mile range. However, they most often come with good maintenance recs (i.e. belts, clutch, mounts, cv, etc) How long can these cars go before it gets into really really expensive repair? I'd just like to get a general census of the members to see how much people are putting on their 944s. Thanks!

'89 951 109k

I know there's a similar age car with around 350,000 miles on it. It was in 911 & Porsche World magazine a few months ago.
