My 2010 2LT/RS (automatic) was my daily driver. Even through 2 Michigan winters.
Now my daily driver is my 2011 2SS/RS (manual). And I LOVE EVERY MINUTE OF IT!

My Camaro doesnt have to be my daily, but I do it anyway.

My 2010 SS has been my DD for over 1.5 yr now and no issue with that. As with any car you could run into trouble if things break, but that doesnt have anything to do with it being a DD.

My 2011 SS/RS is my daily driver to work, 50 miles round trip and love every mile of it! Love driving this car and wouldn't have any other way.

EVERY car has issues. Just treat her right and they'll be kept to a minimum.

2011, SS, LS3, 12K+ miles daily driver. Zero problems, in our rare snow times I don't drive it, my silverado misses me and it is just coming up on 190K. It's a Chevy......... you can drive it 'till the wheels fall off.

I would hope so. Mine is my DD and I am hoping for more than that with no issues.
