Daily Driver, even in the snow, 14 months - 12,000 miles, washed and waxed all year, 19" Volks for summer, stock 17" Blizzaks for winter.

Bought it thinking it would be more of a weekend car, but I love drivin' it and showing it off so much, it ended up a daily driver! Only 12 mi round trip to work anyway, though it does sit in the sun, in the parking lot all day (sob). Hope the UV protectant in the wax does something. Live in tampa, so I'm good all year round. got a 2003 Mercury for hauling around my bicycles and bad weather (not much here, fortunately) and just for a change of pace. I'd feel a bit stuck if the only car I had were a 2 seater.

Not a daily driver but I take it as much as I can. I have a 1999 Toyota Tacoma 4x4 for inclement weather days.

Yes and No; By that I mean I drive a Z car everyday but not necessarily the same Z!
Brickyard Red Base model at 12,500 miles and six oil changes in the logbook. No accidents, door dings or scratches! No trips to assmart!
I am driving the newest acquisition at the moment, a 1978 Datsun 280Z with a newly rebuilt engine (bored .020 over and fully balanced w/ HKS 12lb flywheel) and getting sideways whenever possible

Every Day, I drive into NYC for work. Since it's black, I've used my other car on rainy days to keep it clean. But on those 2-3 rain days in a row I go through serious withdrawl. The winter will be tough, unless it's a snowless one, unlike last year.
I could not imagine storing this car for the winter, might as well obstain from sex.

Another vote for a daily driver! It's usually the highlite of my day. It's pretty sad when you look forward to the drive home. Man, do I love driving her!
