Tech writer Jim Pasha in Excellence magazine (Aug., '04) notes that the "established longevity for 911 engines over the past 25 years averages 230,000 miles before teardown." He goes on to say that "The new engines (986/996) should duplicate this with ease if the high mileage Boxsters I've been watching are any indication."
Time, and miles, will tell, but it looks promising.
