For about the first 18 months I owned my last one I used it as a daily driver. Then got another car to use everyday and the Vette was a fair weather car.

My '00 Coupe is my DD. Rain, shine, hot, cold. I did drive my truck in when we had the ice storm.. other then that, I drive the vette. We all know it just plain stinks to get out of work and have to "drive" home in a vette. but. hey.. someone has to do it!
I just wash it every weekend - and sometimes during the week if time permits and it looks worse they "normal". Yes. I have a black car that I use as my DD.

Mine is a DD and i work 6-7 days a week at 100 miles p/day! I never have to worry about if a beater will get me there on time or what issues i will have w it today. I just keep the smile on my face to and from work. I bought it 15 months ago (2000 coupe) w 58,000 and now at 73,000
