Nice to see some (most) of the people in this thread drive their cars rather than letting them sit in the garage. I average around 20K a year

Ours is a 2000 with 20,350. So like 4k a year. Will have a lot more with us driving it though. I can't wait to take this thing to the 500 this year.

Daily driver, 13,000 miles per year. I think I'm a little high for a Corvette owner, but I just can't stop driving the darn thing. I feel like a king when behind the wheel.

Having been associated either as an owner or avid fan of Corvette's since 1957, I'd have to say an average of 6K to 8K a year. Of course there are extreme's at either end. I bought a 2 year old 03 Z that only had 4771 miles on it. But then I average 8K a year as a daily driver.

But like most things these are all opinions. I wonder if anyone actually has any facts to back up cliams.
