Default Is your ISF a "Daily Driver"

I am thinking about changing the garage status of my 2009 ISF (31K miles) and was just wondering how many CL ISF owners actually drive their ISF "Daily".

Not that it will matter on my decision but as I was heading down that path (looking to lease something for daily duty) I was just wondering...

I drive mine every day. Rain, snow or sun.

It's an awsome daily driver, and will continue to be my daily until the RCF impresses me or I stumble upon the ideal 997.2 911 Turbo/GTS

Sun, rain or snow the F gets it done! I used to do the DD thing when I owned my supras. I would average about 2000-2500 miles per year and just felt it was a waste. Sold both cars and went to 1 and couldn't be happier.

Mine is a daily driver. I was about to buy a used GTR but after driving that thing , and falling in love, you realize its a bit harsh to drive every day all the time. Thats what brought me to the F

Also include road trips.

The car has been outstanding, no issues, good (relative) mileage.

Monday through Friday 50 miles around trip sitting in stop and go traffic.... don't like piling the whole family in the car so the F usually rests on the weekends unless my wife is working. 105k miles and still going strong!

Don't get me wrong, I've considered buying or leasing a "beater" or a hybrid since its really more cost effective, but thats just another car to insure and another payment to make.
