Well I put over 100K on a 84 308 GTB with no issues at all sold it with 120K 
and it cranked and went off with the new owner. Biggest issue I see with the 
cars is the exhaust valves always needed shiming. 
My 93' 512TR has 88K+ on it and I did the major last year. Once again no major 
problems, had to replace a front main seal and all the gaskets around the end 
caps and all the GM back pressure valves but other than that no problems. But I 
did have to shim most of the exhaust valves. 
I feel if you uise the car and don't overheat it it should go easily 200K 
before a major issue of oil consumption shows up and actually of you read the 
ownwers manual Ferraris burn/use oil every car does!
