Everyone here daily drive their 1LE???
 
When younger I use to have a weekend car i hated putting wear and tear on the weekend car. As the years passed I have realized I was just preserving the car for the next owner of my car....So just curious how many of you drive your cars on a daily basis....:popcorn:

Yup, right now only in dry weather, just got it a week ago so still on stock 1LE-GY tires. Plan on getting all-season tires in a few months.

I enjoy feeling the ummmmph of the 1SS 1LE,
I have 48000 in 17 months. And I have a run around car in the driveway, if just aint the same.

Negative, but I plan to keep mine until it or I go.

I did for two years and it was fine as a DD, but as my kids got bigger, it became harder for them to get in and out of the back seat and I even began to feel a bit claustrophobic too.

I daily my 1LE almost every day. I try to take out my 99' 911 once a week, but the 1LE is so good that its been more like once every two weeks lol. I also have a C5Z06 that is almost exclusive for track duty.

I walk to work yet have put over 15k on the car in a little over a year.

Daily duty around here is rough on a car, with potholes, partially paved "roads", road debris, and non-drivers.
I wouldn't put any car I cared for through that again.
That's what Toyota's and Honda's are for.

I daily the crap out of my car, 2019 SS 1LE, bought it back in November of 2018... I'm currently at 8900 miles :(

MP3BOOSTED 07-17-2019 09:28 AM

I use to daily mine but with my current house setup I just don't want to move all the other cars around to do it. I guess it's also a little different for me being FBO and only running E85, I love the car and i'm about to boost it here in the next month (I have all the parts already just need to install them) but I usually daily my silverado or my girlfriend and I just bought a 04 civic to put miles on it. I also plan to never get rid of my car just due to the fact of how much i've put into it but do plan on driving it some more once i get a house with enough driveway space.

**NOTE** once you go H/C FBO on stock tires you don't get any traction so driving in the rain isn't ideal, i also put the drag pack on here and there for some fun runs (at the track). San antonio has some stupid weather so never guarantee its going to be dry out.

I have 9800 miles and bought it in July of 2017.

Yes, except in winter, but someone will be along shortly to tell you how they DD in -20 degrees and 3 feet of snow on racing slicks and that it's "not bad".

DenverTaco07 07-17-2019 09:31 AM

I don't - 60 mile commute (round trip) and as of right now and for the last 5 years, I've carpooled with my wife and son, so, just not as easy a car to get people in and out of. when I'm by myself it's much easier choice.

Next month that will change so I'll probably drive the 1LE to work once or twice a week in warm seasons. I have a Volt for commuting which I fill up the 7 gallon tank every 3 weeks or so, it's great for that purpose, and it is a quick little car.

Daily
 
I bought this car to drive, and drive it I do. Every day. Drop my kids off at camp or school and down to work. I have to admit, I hate putting my kid behind the driver seat as I have to slide it way up to give her any room, but totally worth it.

I definitely got spoiled by the e92 m3 I had. Two door, but crazy roomy back seats. Well designed. But then I put the seat back to its normal position and all is well in the world again.

DaveC113 07-17-2019 09:47 AM

Yes, but I work from home and live in-town so I ride my bike a lot and don't have to go far for groceries, to hit the gym, etc.

Ryanbabz71 07-17-2019 10:21 AM

Nope
