Am I crazy to think that I could use a 996TT as a daily driver? All my cars are manual...so a stick in Houston traffic is something I've already dealt with. But...is it "practical enough" that I can get away with it?

I personally think using it as a daily driver is the only way to go. I always feel sorry for folks that have these cars for years with less than 10K miles when they sell. They never get a chance to experience all of the conditions these cars handle flawlessly.
I've never had an issue mechanically with my car that wasn't self inflicted.![Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/rolleyes.gif)
My kids still fit in the back so it is a reasonable family car, I love my commute and when I hit the track I experience a whole different dimension of the car.

Some of those folks "you feel sorry for" have track appliances that provide more fun on the track than a non daily driver/garage queen 996TT.
