Re: 10 Years & 150,000 Miles Later...

My 987S hit ten years old and 150K miles the other day. Still running like a dream. Every switch, button, latch & etc all working perfectly. To "Baby" my car I have reduced the oil change cycle from 12K to 9K.







I thought I would list the non regular maintenance work done on the car.

68K - convertible top side arm replaced

102K - AOS replaced

118k - new clutch

123K - new engine mount

123K - new water pump

147K - windshield fluid pump replaced

Congratulations Rick! Yours is a great example of how terrific these cars are. Fun to drive and built to last.

Yours is a real beauty. It looks like a brand new, modern car. That's one of the magical things about the Boxster. It's such a classic, timeless design.

enjoy the next 150K miles.

A beautiful pristine car!

I'm impressed. My '08 Cayman has 111,000 miles on it and has it's original clutch, AOS and water pump, so I guess I should get ready for those issues sometimes soon. I like cars that are used and the people the drive them.

The car looks great--love that color too.

I always thought the 987 model would be very reliable if properly maintained.

My 2008 RS60 has... 15,000 miles. Must drive more.

LOL...you said it...that's my annual average and my car has never been driven to work.

12 years and 151k, still get a thrill every time I hear that flat 6 wind out. Now I just need to get that top replaced...oops that's for a different thread.
