Default Daily Driver?

Just wondering if there are a lot of people that drive their S2k everyday no matter what. (snow, rain, sun, etc.) I've been driving my beater now that the winter is coming, but I long to drive the baby again...

Here in Texas it makes for a great daily driver. Only exception is when we have an ice storm. At which point I take out the urban assault vehcile and crush all that get in my way.

There are at least a few previous threads on this. But for my contribution, yes, it's currently my daily driver if my wife and I don't carpool since we work near one another. I do hope to buy something a bit better designed for inclement weather for a beater though.

Daily driver except if there ice/snow out. Then I drive my wife's Volvo. Luckily, we work close together.

Everyday.

Definitely the most fun car I've ever owned.

I don't have a daily driver, but the S is my regular ride. I only take my truck if I expect rain, or if I know I'm going to spend a lot of time in stop-and-go.

Yes mine's daily, but in Southern Cal why not! I also have a beater 87 Toyota Van ( with 4WD) for mountain bikes & bashing with shopping carts & driving over boulders. When I first met my girlfriend I drove the S, then soon I washed the van & picked her up in that one day. Guess what? She liked the van better since it had more room
