Weekend toy/pleasure vehicle or daily driver?
 

Just a curious question here. Yesterday while enjoying this beautiful weather we are having, I was having a conversation with a buddy of mine over how infrequently I drive my Vettes. I told him they are weekend/pleasure vehicles and not my daily driver. He then made a statement that he would bet that 90% of Vette owners use their cars sparingly and don't daily drive them. Of the people that I know that own Vettes this is partially true.

So I thought I'd ask the forum, is your Vette a weekend/pleasure vehicle or your daily driver?

Mine is a daily driver and that use was my intention when I bought it. Rain or shine, it doesn't matter, I'm always cruising in style.

Weekend toy........and loving it.

mine sits on the jack stands right now in pieces but when it runs I only drive it on the weekends

Mine is a nice weather weekend/date night with the wife car.

Nice weather driver. I only get it for 6 months a year to be out so every nice day I take advantage. If it see's a little ran no big deal. It wont melt. :thumbs:

Mine is a weekend, pleasure driver. However, I would have no problem making it a daily driver if I didn't need a 4-door business sedan for work.

Someday, I plan to ditch the four door sedan for good and only drive sports cars. :thumbs:

Regular driver, but I am retired and do not go to work everyday, but still drive 3 or 4 times a week.

Daily driver here. Winter in Chicago is the only time I drive another vehicle, but even then if there is no snow on the ground and just cold, I'll take it to work.

Daily driver all the way. I've had a hard time enjoying driving in anything else since I got the vette- guess I've spoiled myself

Summer season daily driver (I live in Minnesota so...).
'99 base coupe, bought it this past May, it replaced my previous summer car which was a '78 Porsche 911 SC (previous to that I had an '86 Porsche 951).
I thought it was time to try "America's sports car", and I really liked the C5's looks and, after driving a couple of them, I was impressed with the handling and performance, so far I'm very pleased with it.

Daily driver here...and not because it is my only car. People at work ask if I wash it daily...I tell them a good detail job goes a long way.

I bought mine as a DD but have since moved it to the garage. I now have a a diesel VW for my DD.

Mine is my pleasure car, certainly not a daily driver at this point.

I drive mine almost every day now if the weather cooperates. I have been retired since July 1 so I drive it about everyday. If the weather isn't good the '00 blazer gets driven. I just enjoy the vette every chance I get.

Mine gets out of the garage maybe twice a month ...so pleasure and my money pit...

Yes.

(Anytime someone asks me an 'or' question, my answer is always 'yes' :lol: )

Seriously, I bought mine as my DD and as a car to enjoy on the weekends.

Weekend, evening, good weather cruiser Now! When I initially purchased car back in 07 it was a DD.... Hence the 137K on the car... ;)

Ditto.

My previous DD was a 1994 Chevy Astro and after 14 years, I was ready for something a little more stylish. :cool:

But aren't the weekends just two more days? That would make the correct response, "sure." :thumbs:
