      I consider my vert to be a summer/fall "weekend car" but when the weather is nice I drive it 75% of the time. Once the snow starts to fall up until the sand is off the roads, I keep the vert in the garage and only drive my 318is.

        Drive mine every day, often in excess of a hundred miles. But I also live in an area where I can pretty much leave my top down year round. But hell, even if it snowed I'd probably just get some winter wheels and spin my coils up a bit.
        The first car I ever rode in was an e30

          My vert was a DD for a year but now I only drive it weekend mornings for like a hour. Its too loud with no exhaust and being on bags it gets old fast.

                The truth about bags comes out? I'm curious to hear more... are they still bouncy at normal ride height?

                  I planned on a DD coupe but ended up with a convertible that I drive every day it's not raining. I will probably park it through the winter though, which will totally suck. I've never cared for convertibles before owning one, but now I hate to drive it with the top up, seems wrong.

                    I'd daily mine if it wasn't swapped and all the accessories actually worked.

                      I DD my built jeep more than my e30. The e30 is my summer car/autox toy.

                            I daily mine, ~70 miles a day with no issues, day in, day out! But the more work I do to it the less I want to subject it to the daily grind. However, it's not my only car, just my newest.

                              I've dd'd e30's off and on for a few years total. Recently determined I'm too old to really be into it anymore. Too small, too loud, too rough, too old.
