I was talking to F-car mechanic last week and he told me that he has a client who has nearly 150K miles on his 328.

Mine is brand new (to me) at 48k miles. I put 400 miles on it during the first two nights after I bought it. This will be my first weekend with the car. I'm taking Friday off to prep it for the weekend. If it see's less then 800 miles I'll be surprised!

I've got 35,000 miles on my TR and it is like new. Had a compression check done last year and everything was within 5 lbs of each other. Also have a 95 355 with 19,000 miles. I too put anywhere from 7-15,000 miles a year on them with little problems

Good to see that you all enjoy your cars.
I put 7,000 Miles per year on my 348. Bought it with 21,900 now 36,700 as of today. 2 years one month with me.

Don't save the miles. Ride it!

Well I plan on putting alot of miles on mine, over 100k. Cause I'm not getting rid of it and I'm not gonna save the miles for the next guy. If the engines in these things are as well built as they seem they should last as long if not longer than a Honda. The problem is the up keep is so expensive poeple don't wanna put the miles on cause it will cost too much.

Anyone top that?

My car has like 59K (over 11 or 12 from me in the one year I drove it) and isn't going anywhere soon, but once together it will go fast. I'm almost at 250K on the jeep (granted only like 35 are from me).

I just turned over 54k on tuesday. I have an 83qv and people always seem amazed when I tell them it has a little over 50k. They can't believe a car that old has so few miles. Then I tell them that for a Ferrari it is actually "high" miles. If it was an 83 honda with 50k on it people would think it was brand new.

Ok guys,

Who has the most miles on there car? Oooooooh bad scary question. I was just at a Honda site and they had a "High Mileage Club". Yes I know this is sacreligious to talk about a Ferrari having high miles, but I think it would be fun.

Mine has over 54K.
