i agree with pete but mine is a garage queen well more of a driveway queen. i have a 93 eg and a 87 bronco II that i drive all the time. I have a big fear about bringing my S on base cause the first day that I had my 99 Si someone kicked it in the parking lot at the hanger so thats why i dont bring mine to base.

It needs to be driven tho and pete you better not back out on me tonight

Even though i would love to drive it everyday, the thing that always keeps off the driver's seat is knowing my Berlina WILL get dinged at work. I park in a public parking lot inside a busy shopping center. My DD was almost perfect before i started to work there, now my poor doors and fenders are banged up no way I am letting the same thing happen to the S

pfft. ferrari drivers? oxymoron? (ferrari sit-in-the-garage-and-look-prettys maybe)

instead, they worry about stuff like too much dust particles.

Mine is a secondary vehicle and on those days I don't drive it, I usually find some "excuse" to go out at night to put a few miles on it. This car is very addicting, but I hope that feeling never wears off.

I had the same feeling about the MR2 when I first bought it. A second generation '2 with great suspension and stick tires. Boost kicks in and you hear it from behind you, it handles like a dream... I love my MR2 with a passion! I have driven many cars since and I couldn't find one I liked until my buddy picked up an S2K. It's the first car since my MR2 that I think is FUN to drive. As stock as his is it's just incredible amounts of fun. From inside the car I feel like I'm driving the Batmobile with those huge flared out fenders (compared to my MR2 anyway). Haha, I can't wait to pick up my own! =\ Monday or Tuesday guys cheer me on! ;p

I'm always offering people (well chicks actually) to drive them back home when I'm at a party or night out.

They're always surprised that I'm willing to drive them about 20 miles to their house but little do they know I just do it for the drive! (it's also a good way of getting their phone numbers )
