When I first got the Z, it was my daily. Then I got a used jeep and I found out that I enjoyed my Z more when I only drove it on the weekend. Now my Jeep broke down and the Z is my daily again. I like it sooo much more when its not my daily.

1) reduce my mileage by 2,400mi/year
2) reduce my gas expenses by $1,300/year
3) reduce my office parking expenses by $1,800/year
4) reduce risks of getting my car dented, keyed, hit, broken into
5) reduce my insurance by $100/year
after all that my Z is still my daily driver...

its my daily driver and I wouldnt have it any other way. I get my moneys worth by driving it everyday. It reminds me why I'm working so hard to pay the monthly payments.

It's my daily driver, but it's definently not my beater. I take care of it and clean it often. It just hasn't earned the spot of the benz's yet in my garage.
