I would use it everyday, but my commute is only about one mile. So, when I do take it out, it's for fun. The only concern I would have is the ride height. Other than that it's fine for everyday.

If you can handle falling into and climbing out of the seats and have no ground height problems driving it every day will only improve your mood.

I like the heavy clutch and yes can be a daily driver but be prepared it is abit harsh on bad roads ie San Francisco but I'm willing to take it simply I do take it out to track and it makes me forget all those small things. Regards. Mike PS-Fongster-where do you live?

I drive mine as a commuter from time to time. No problem even with the GT3 race buckets which I find more comfortable than the OEM sports seats. I don't commute in it because I have another car for that, one that I am not afraid to leave with a valet parking guy.

I drive mine to work now and then on 101 (south of san jose), I think the ride is actually quite supple.

My daily driver is a Honda Civic Hybrid which does have a softer ride.
