You need to get your car up on some ramps to check to see if the bushes are split also check the other suspension components for "play" by applying lateral force using a jimmy.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Well,
Poly bushes, depending on colour, 50k +,
But Porsche OPC won't fit them, so guessing OPC bushes, ???
30k???
depends if you want a Porsche warranty or not,
Well, when my car was up on the ramps for some other work the mechanic called me over and just showed me how much movement there was in the wishbones,
And you could see distortion and degradation of the bushes themselves.
What's the vibration like? Are you sure it's not the wheel out of balance.
In answer to your question, it's not the mileage, but the type of roads it has driven over (and subsequent abuse it's had!).
From the description, it does sound like your front wheel has lost a weight.
new tires, fresh balance (nearly no weights required) same vibration felt in the steering wheel @~65mph up. Car has had an easy life so far which is why I wondered if age breakdown of rubber bushings could be an issue.

Does sound like this vibration your querying could be a balancing issue. I had new tyres and weights on my 964 (when I had it) and had to have them re-balanced to address a similar issue at similar speeds.
