    sounds like the old tale about the "favorite axe that's had two axe heads and three handles replaced" ;)

    still, pretty impressive. not sure $16k is reasonable though.

    also, I vote those rims as the worst wheel design in Porsche history.

    +1000. They look as bad as they did 20 years ago. I wonder if the Porsche designer still has a job who thought those things would look better than an updated Fuch.

    Always nice to see a Porsche with half a million miles.

    I don't think they are that bad. They would look better on a 944 or 928. My vote for worst Porsche wheel design would be these.. the skinny phone dials on the 928.

    I'd disagree. I find them simple, reasonably light, and durable. My 964 would be slogging through the snow wearing a set of those & snow tires right now if it weren't for the fact the stupid starter just died & I don't feel like spending 4 hours under a car in the freezing cold replacing the darn thing...

    Now I'm stuck using the Z3 for snow duty & getting strange looks from folks in their Subarus.

    It's not uncommon for a 911 to have 100,000+ miles, or even 200,000+ miles. How many Ferraris have had more that 100,000 miles? Maybe 30 ever?

    there are probably 30 360's with over 100k miles.

    and there's a big difference between 200k and 500k, the herd gets pretty thin at those levels.
