    Put a keypad and an Fchat screen in your 348 and it'll have 792,284 miles on it by Xmas.

    I have just over 61,000mi on my 308 GT4. I have owned the car for more than ten years and have put just under 19,000mi on it during that period...

    My perfect 330GTC has around 90,000 of which 10,000 was done in the last 2 years (when I got ownership). My most modern Ferrari (550M from 2000) has 40,000 (25,000 by me in 4 years).

    I know it's a mature Ferrari, but didn't the milage scare you a little? No need for refurbishment or overhauling the engine and/or gearbox after so many enjoyable miles?

    Is that how many miles showing or how many miles your car has really been driven?

    If I add them together it's over 100,000, of which I've put on 2/3 of the miles.

    90.000 is not much in my book. My guess is that his car is doing fine. And so is the owner I think :)

    An engine is an engine. It takes quite a lot of intentional, neglect-oriented stress to make them really start to give out.

    Take care of them, use them, and they usually last a lot longer than the mileage freaks will lead you to believe.

    83,000 on my 328, really not that much for a 25-year-old car. But it had 48,000 when I bought it 7 years ago, so I'm obviously driving it more than the prior owners.

    But several years ago I found a gent in Chattanooga who already had over 120,000 miles on a 308, which he said was his daily driver!

    Here's a little experiment for you. Go on SleazeBay, search for all Porsches, and then sort by the most miles. Then do the same thing for Ferraris. I just did, and here is what I found:

    Porsche's highest was 209,000. There must have been 30+ cars over 100K.

    The highest Ferrari was 94,300. The next nearest was around 75K.

    I have reported on this phenomena several times on this board. Where I come from (got my start with sports cars with old air cooled Porsches) mileage is somewhat of a badge of honor. Maybe not to the extent of a diesel Mercedes, who actually put a badge on their car, but an honorary badge nonetheless. Exact opposite with older Ferraris where either the cars are never driven, they spontaneously combust at a certain mileage, or somebody rolls back an odometer at some point. I lust to be the guy with a high mileage Ferrari, perhaps I can roll my odometer forward.

    328 sold at close to 70k miles.
    Testarossa close to 50k miles.
    360 I had it for less than a year but I got over 6k miles out of it.
    My Oct. 2006 F430 has 20,400 miles.

    Not garage queens in mileage but they looked every bit as new.
