What are your thoughts on a 1999 P-car with 135K miles? Is that too many miles for a track car only. Its priced at $15K and in great shape. What's compelling is then i would not have to insure DE like I do with my 09 today. Thoughts?

Coverage and how to read this overview
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.

Nice to see they can take the mileage. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Aston-mart...item25ab603199
I think your reasoning makes sense. The 996 is THE car of choice for many of my DE friends looking for a dedicated DE car. Not sure you shouldn't look for something with lower miles and in the 20-25K range but if the PPI checks out..why not.
wow, impressive!
I sold my 2002 996 with 147K miles for that. The car looked better than new. I miss her! joel
I love to see this stuff.
135k is not bad, I have a friend getting close to 180k now and no problems...
That's awesome. I shot the seller a question asking if the engine/gearbox have ever been rebuilt. That really boosts my confidence in their product!

Quote: Nope. Miles don't matter. How it has been maintained during those miles is what matters. If you plan to use it as a DE car, then you'll be going through and making it track safe/ready, which makes the mileage even less relevant. However, I don't see the logic of spending $15k so you don't have to take out DE insurance on your '09. You can take out a lot of DE insurance for $15k. FLi
No shame in DD game. I like it - use it and use it a lot they did! That's what it's for.
