I am going to get something good on gas, and 4 door (probably an old VW golf). Love the car, and am glad to say, that I am in the position to have her as just a "toy".

Moral of the story: I finally get the thought process of the guys that don't DD their Camaros.

Thanks for reading

Glad to hear you love your Camaro!

Now I'll play devil's advocate. You love driving your Camaro and it actually makes getting up for work more fun because you get to drive it. So in response to this you are thinking of getting a crappy DD car and take that fun away from yourself?

I've done the commuter car thing in the past and I don't recommend it. I ended up putting too much time and money into the commuter car to make it more enjoyable and ended up selling the car I was trying to 'save' because it seemed pointless to have a car I never drove.

Life is too short to save your car for the next owner. If you have a car you love to drive you should drive it all the time!
