WOW This thread makes me feel like I treat my S like crap!!! 9K Miles in 4 months (my daily driver) but she is treated "like" a queen 3-4 weekly washes covered every night and never ever in the sun unless Im driving it. Will be my garage queen once a get an Evo or Sti as a beater.

Mine is a garage queen. I bought my '02 16 months ago with 12k miles and just turned 18k miles old this week.

the S2000, but my CTS-V is my daily driver.

mine sits in the garage and rarely sees rain. It shares its space with my other garage queen.

I only put like 900 miles on mine all last summer because i rode my GSXR600 every day to work and back and hardly drove my s2k. I sold it and my S became the daily again but my 240sx is almost driveable and i'll be parking the s2k again

A little over 2,000 put on mine since bought in Feb. I don't drive it to work much, but when I do, that's 50 miles that day.

I ride my Ninja daily, I'd rather see the miles put on it. The more you drive the S daily, the more crap that can happen to it. I'd like to keep her mint. MY04 just shy of 20k and I'm really milking it! She's been at 19k for like 2-3 months now, I think!

Bought new in '00 with 15 miles - now 17,500 miles.
Been in the rain like twice and always is in the garage.

I bet the '00 and '01 models will have a higher number of garage queens since we were led to believe that we were buying a very low production model (5000 units a year with only two year run.)

Mines seen rain 4 times in 7 years.

It's sits in the garage with the top down, boot on and ready to go.

When it goes out, it gets driven hard.

A total toy.

Mine's TOTALLY not a garage queen. It's my daily. Got it new in February of 2007 and I'm about to hit 50K miles this weekend.

Garage queen here. Bought it with 21k on the odo 4 years ago. Now has 40k on it. I drove it quite a bit when I first purchased it, but now its not uncommon for it to sit 2 weeks without moving
