Occasional weekend drive, never sees rain. Used to take it to work once a month but I'm afraid the splitter won't make the parking lot anymore.

Mine is my 3rd car and I don't rely on it day-to-day. I bought it for a toy (track -- autox and open track).
But, I do take it to work sometimes, and I do enjoy cruising down country roads with it too. It's not a trailer queen yet

3rd car. Driven only in the summer, on weekends, Coffee Runs and about once a week to work if the weather looks clear. Only sees the rain if I get caught unawares. Takes way too much time to get it spotless again if it gets wet.
Never thought I'd end up being one of those "never sees the rain" types, but I love this car so much I can't stand seeing it look anything but its best.

Tommy:
It just turned 165,000 Km before I put it away. It's in very nice shape, everything's original or if looking "tired", has been replaced with OEM parts. It's pretty much in Concourse condition and I think it'll stay that way until I pass it on to its next owner sometime down the road. Mechanically, it's in real good shape as well. I just can't think of any Porsche I'd rather have at this point (within the $40 - $50K range). I Love this car!

AND... It's my ONLY car! Not good! And as I saw in Cyrus' post it is even expensive for an 18 year old...

Mine's the definition of garage queen: 3,500 miles over four + years of ownership. I've probably spent more money on Mobil 1 oil changes than gas!
