Daily Driver...commute over 80 miles one way plus drive to offices over half the state...but have a 69 camaro and a pro mod 69 camaro.

Its meant as a daily driver car. There isn't anything exotic in the powertrain that prevents that. The Camaro was always intended to be that way...and truth be told, so was the Corvette. If our friend's Ferrari California doesn't melt in the rain (saw it pulling in the lot today when I dropped off my wife)...the camaro won't either.

Drive it and enjoy it!

Garage kept weekend warrior.
However, I'm not totally afraid of getting it wet.

I'm seriously and literally keeping this car for the rest of my days so in 30years, I want it looking and feeling as crisp and tight as it is today.

These cars are made to be driven
Since I paid for it, I'll decide what this car was made for. Last time I checked, my name was on the title.
you are missing alot of pleasure
You have no idea...I ain't missing a thing, my friend.

Daily driver. I wouldnt be able to stand just driving it only on weekends, too much fun to be had. Plus its my only car.

I say weekend driver, but I'm actually a shift worker.
6 on, 6 off. So during my 6 off, I get to put lotsa miles on it!

I seriously don't understand the people who are tucking it away. This is not a Ferrari or Bugatti. It's a 30-40k Camaro, and it's meant to be driven. It's mass produced.

In other words, there's lots of them out there and though I love the car...There's no reason NOT to drive this car. It's meant to be driven.

To each their own, though.
