I drive a Porsche every day.
I prefer the 944 for aggressive driving, and one of the 928s for longer runs, although on the hot days, I often think that I should get the A/C fixed.
Just drove the 928 to an out-of-city site (to do some IT work), and chose to go the long way. I'm looking forward to the drive back.

I drive a 928 daily 
Steve, get the AC fixed, or fix it yourself!
I just got AC working in my 87 - cost me about $300 to go through the system; flushed the lines with mineral spirits and compressed air, replaced all o-rings, drier, r134a expansion valve, rebuild compressor and then got it filled to factory specs by a local auto electrician (I already had some rebuilt hoses that were fine, so I didn't get the ones off the car rebuilt).

I drive the S4 on nice days, the 82' on nasty days.

I put more miles on rental cars than I do on my S4. When I am at home though, the 928 is my daily transportation. Good news for cars is that we live in a coastal desert where rain is a real rare commodity. I generally never really need to be anywhere on days when it rains, but the car has actually seen rain a few times in its life nonetheless. Not real rain though, just that little mist we have here. RH during thunderstorms here makes it to maybe 70%, so it really is a pretty dry rain.

I live in Fla so she is driven daily. I am from NE and if I lived there she would be put away for the winter as I don't think she would drive to well in the snow and ice.
Moving to Ga, atlanta area so she will stay a DD!

I am proud to say that as of lately I have been driving mine almost daily. At least 5 days out of the week. I have parked it the last couple of days while the hurricane IDA passed thru, but hope to get out and about again tomorrow.
