Mine is my toy car, along with my toy 1098 and my toy Harley....I do not use it for driving to work, just for pleasure. 16,000 miles on it.

All for fun! Also have had one (1) 2000 mile road trip and four (4) 750 mile road trips with it. Beautiful on the road.

Not a DD I drive it on the weekends ,My DD is a 2006 Dodge Ram 1500,

Weekend and road-trip toy also, but with occasional drives to work. Since my commute is only 2.5 miles, I often ride a bicycle to work. In the winter, I drive the family SUV, and plan to garage the Camaro.

I miss that bike every day

Well, my car is my week day ride, my Harley was weekend, but my car is now cutting into that weekend time since I have owned it.

Its my daily car. Dont have any transportation anymore. *foreign student detected* lol

jklipan · 09-08-2011, 11:26 AM

Weekend driving for sure. I won't leave it in a parking lot because nowadays, well let's face it, people just don't respect other people's property. I've had my car for two years now and there are no door dings or scratches on it due to someone else's irresponsibility. It stays in a garage during the week. I see plenty of C5s on the road every day on the way in to work (saw a black SS with grey strips) headed East on MD 32 this morning), however, I don't want to put the car at risk to some other driver's inattention to detail. In morning rush hour, people are more concerned with getting to work on time than they are with driving responsibly. Less people on the road on the weekend equals more room to drive (IMO). Plus this puts less miles on the car. I only have 13k on mine and bought in November of 2010.

I feel you on that, I do the same thing I park very far from any store all the time
