speedometer

The speedometer on my 2000 base boxster with 17" wheels matches dead on with my Garmin gps speedometer other than a couple second time lag when changing speed.

Of course, they may both be off.

The odometer is spot on, the speedo usually reads about 3 mph high. Your real speed can be read on a PST2 or Durametric (by a passenger of course).

Great to hear of so many high mileage Boxsters. Mine has 107K, I use it daily and drive it 50 miles to work 5 days a week.
