I must admit I had seriously doubts about the S as a daily driver: it's loud, buzy, lacks low end torque, small interior, doesn't have all the great amenities, but...

After driving it around for the first week, it puts a smile on my face everytime I drive it, even more so than my last Supra TT. Ah...the joys of VTEC and some exclusivity.

It also helps I commute maybe 5 miles max a day (I start looking for longer routes now instead of shortcuts

Now only if the friggin weather will cooperate!

Daily driver for me, garaged at night.
After getting stuck in a snowstorm and had to get a tow home, I'm considering a Jeep Wrangler for off roadin and daily driving.

I wish it was my daily driver (can't do it due to the location of my work). However on my days off, it is a different story. specially driving it on one of the twistiest roads around here highway 23 going to malibu. watchout bikers, here comes the silver bullet

Daily driver except if there is any precip, car has never seen rain. Garaged at night. I use my 94 accord coupe 5spd. 160,000 mi for rain and my wife's rx300 for snow.

Unfortunately I have to travel around quite a bit in the NYC area using many different parking garages. I have long relationships with many of these garages as a regular and they generally take good care of the car. They do once in a while back cars into it and the front plate has been the only damage so far. I refuse to let it sit in the garage fearing these things. Just hope for the best and fix anything nasty.

It is my only car, and I drive it every day, unless the snow is deeper than the front spoiler!

Was my daily driver for her first 8 months while living in California. Since moving to Seattle, she sits covered in the garage most of the time.
