Daily Driver?
I now live in Georgia and was just looking for some feedback on people who use the camaro as a daily driver. I don't garage it but since it is black I make sure to keep it clean.

My Camaro is my daily driver. It hasnt let me down in the 16,9xx miles I've owned it. Im constantly making trips from TX to OK back and forth with no problems. It is also black as well. Pretty hard to keep clean, but when it is clean, it is the best looking car on the road.

Mine is a daily driver. I've got almost 50,000 miles on her and drove it through 2 New England winters. It's been a GREAT daily driver for me. I'm so glad I bought this car...

Great daily driver. Almost 46,000 miles. Great in traffic, great in conditions, and you can surprisingly fit a lot in it. I can put, with the back seats down, a fully loaded hockey goalie bag and sticks and still have room in the trunk

Mine is a daily driver, but it kills me because it never stays clean.

Mine is my daily. I am going to try my hardest not to drive it in the snow, but otherwise it goes out... rain or shine. I figure, if I'm paying hard earned money for it, and I enjoy driving it... I may as well!
I enjoy the car too much for it to be a garage queen!

Mine is a DD. Wash it only once a week. Gets dirty easy but looks excellent when it's clean.

Mine is a DD and being a Black car, I have the same issue as most. You have to be willing to keep it clean. Owning a black car when it is a DD is a labor of love in my opinion, and I love it.

Every camaro Ive ever owned has been a daily driver. My 1991 & 1996 even did great in lake effect snow storms. Havent got to test the 2011 in the snow yet. I had over a 100K miles on each of the older two. I just couldnt turn mine into a garage queen. I love driving them way too much.
 All those miles were put on with love and a permagrin.

Me too. Make sure to have good winter tires if needed. Not the most practical car if you have kids or need lots of cargo space. But for me(bachelor) its been great!

Daily Driver. The rock chips hurt my soul a little, but she's held up nice. Still the baddest car on the road!
