This is gonna make you guys laugh...
Aside from my 76 911, I ride around in a 71 VW Super Beetle. I love air cooled! This is the funny part...
In the winter time, I walk and take the BUS! I have to find myself a winter car... darn.

My everyday driver is a Demo, usually a
2002 Chev. Tahoe or 2002 WRX.
Other car is a 1988 Toyota FJ62 (Landcrusier)
Most of the time is spent "driving" my Cannondale's <img src="graemlins/jumper.gif" border="0" alt="[jumper]" />

1992 Isuzu Trooper (my daily driver)

My dad and I alternate whichever cars we feel like driving, minus my mom's so we get a nice variety to choose from.

This is a pathetic thread..... and here I thought I was in the market for a car which could do complete double duty as year round second car to the mini-van (and RX-7 racecar) but it seems that most people on rennlist either over-deify or don't trust their 911 to anything more than a 4th or 5th car!!! Maybe I'll stick with my trusty E28 (which eats 911's at track events anyways).

my daily driver -> '84 911 Carrera
my wife's daily driver -> '99 A4 (soon to be replaced with a '98-'99 A8)
our backup beater -> my parent's 3rd car, their mid-90's caravan (used only when our primary vehicles are at the shop for service, as neither of our "primaries" are anything but 100% relaible)

gee, skid, what a pleasant attitude. I am impressed that you make decisions based upon simplistic interpretation of the actions & assertions of complete strangers. I encourage you to stick with the E28.
while I'm at it, the daily drivers...
'87 Carrera Coupe w/ 90K mi.
'89 MB 300TE w/ 112K mi.
'83 528e w/ 200K mi.
the projects...
'59 356A "Drauz" (to restore)
'66 Alfa Sprint GT (1/2 share)
'71 Alfa 1750 GTV (1/2 share)
'73 911T (to track)

Hi all,
My daily driver from new is a '94 Acura Integra GSR Coupe with 86xxx miles now. This is my second brand new vehicle. The first one was an '89 Nissan Hardbody pickup truck. I hated that truck, it was so slow and had no tach, and no power anything.
I love my Interga GSR and hope to keep it forever. It is very reliable so far and good gas mileage too. I was a ricer until I was introduced to Porsche in '97. Even though my Integra GSR is modified, it doesn't even feel as solid as my '78 911SC. I see a few Integra fans on here too. I think it is a great city/commute driving kind of car.
Cheers <img src="graemlins/beerchug.gif" border="0" alt="[cheers]" /> <img src="graemlins/offtopic.gif" border="0" alt="[offtopic]" />

My daily driver is my 81 911SC although I ride my 98 Kawasaki ZX9R (141 hp!) in clear weather. ALthough since I am currently unemployed do I really had a daily driver?
My wife drives the beater 87 944S (140k)
We had a 92 MBZ 400E until my wife was rear ended on the freeway. Totaled the car <img src="graemlins/crying.gif" border="0" alt="[crying]" /> but the wife was fine. Can't beat MBZ safety!
