The purpose of your 951: daily? Track? Weekend?
Just wondering how many people use their cars for a dedicated purpose such as track driving or sunny sunday driving and how many people use their's daily or several times a week.

I drive mine whenever I am not in school or working to pay for it. Basically, not often. Knowing I have it though is enough to keep me going until I graduate.

Daily driver (although I put on maybe 300 miles month), and track/time trial use (probably more miles there than street driving). Competing against pretty much trailered race cars :-)

when the car is not in the mechanic's shop(getting a new engine as we speak), I use my car for small trips to the mechanics shop for periodic maintenance.

If only I could could drive on a track daily...
Seriously, during winter I have to steal/beg/borrow rides to get around, rest of the year my 951 takes me everywhere. Last summer I got to track it like every other weekend, hopefully next summer will be as good

Before that it was my daily driver... I was always afraid to take it to a DE because I was not confident of the attention it received from the previous owner... so I wanted to do a few preventive repairs before a DE... since I was there... well... the rest is history and the car is still not ready.

Mine is/has been a daily driver. It will be my only car within a couple of months so right now I'm not driving it as much to keep the mileage off of it and not forcing the short trips I make on it (3 miles to work and go home at lunch) as it never gets up to temp then and I can't use the boost. I do use it for any longer trips when it's running. Right now I've not driven it in a month as I'm doing some maintenance on it and the holidays are terrible times to try and order parts and have free time to work on it. Should be running again this weekend though!
