So far the plan is 3 seasons and store in the winter as soon as the salt hits the roads. Since I just placed the order on Saturday and being ordered on Monday I should take posession around Jan. Not going to be babied though, Power Tour and week-end strip car.

I drive mine to work every day; even in the rain.
I'm waiting to have some fun in the snow.
I drove my other Camaros in the snow except the Brickyard pace car.
I drive it to the mall, church, grocery store; EVERYWHERE!
This is a fun car to drive.
I have over 7500 miles now, picked it up June 4, small accident July.
It will probably only last me 5 or 6 years based on my track record.
Then I will get another one, as long as Chevy keeps building them!

100 % daily driver.
The only way I wouldn't use my Camaro as a daily driver would be if I lived in an area with snow on the roads. That I couldn't do in my Camaro.


My neighbor drives his $148,000 Porsche Turbo to work everyday (rain or shine). If his Porsche can handle a little rain, I think my Camaro will be just fine.
And I spend 1 hour everyday driving back and forth to work. I would hate to be doing that in anything but my Camaro.

Mine is another Toy, to be enjoyed, have fun in and drive it, hard, when I'm on my days off with the wife. We enjoy it together!

I kinda treat it like another motorcycle, mostly only taken out in good weather. It is not used for going to Walmart, the grocery store or shopping. It is taken for nice windy roads, the same roads I take my high perfomance motorcycles on. A pure fun machine, not a dialy commuter.

I use my 2003 VW Golf TDI that gets 47mpg for commuting.

Mine is a daily driver -- I don't have a garage for it to park in. So if I get home before my husband then I get to park in the driveway, if I get home later then him I get to park on the street.

My five year old neighbor is happy that Bumblebee parks outside. He feels safer at night knowing that Bumblebee is there.

However, that had nothing to do with the color. That was decided because I teach high school and the students all loved my old camaro, and would ask me to be in their car shows every year. My car wasn't all that special, but it had T-tops and that was enough to catch the attention of a high school kid. Then when the new camaro's came out they would pester me about buying bumblebee. So when the old camaro decided not to work anymore, I knew I was getting a new camaro, and there happened to be a transformer edition in the area, so I figured what the heck. I was the talk of the town (hallways) for months.

However, if the transformer wasn't available, I would have gotten another blue one with white stripes. I like consistancy.

The damage Canadian winters do to car in a few months is easily more then the rest of the year. Salt sucks.
