Purchased 02 vert on June 25, 2010 and I've done 3700 this first year. Didn't realize it was this much until I checked it out.

That's all good weather days, no rain, no snow, no night driving. I'm still under 30K on the car.

This post got me thinking, I was off work today and the weather was beautiful. Told the wife I was going out for breakfast as she was getting ready for work. I got back about three with another 125 top down Shenandoah Valley miles! Breakfast was great!

Does it get any better?

Not too many on my FRC, but about 23k on my 94.

It is my daily driver and I have a 100 miles per day commute to work and back. The corvettes are good economy cars for my highway driving and a lot more fun than the econoboxes.

I drive it every chance I get weather permitting. So in the last year I put about 7K miles on it and currently have about 75K on the clock and I put every one of those miles on it.

It'll probably be about 20K for the whole year.
I got new Michelins at the end of August and it had 77K then.
I just passed 90K.

approx 3600 avg/year for me. it took a couple of 600 mile round trips during the last 2 years when i had back surgery and follow up well upstate from my home. that ended with my second surgery last labor day, so it should be a bit less (on average) going forward. at least until we take our next trip in it, lol. it is purely a weekend ride.
