It still amazes me how rare 911s are. In a typical week, including a nornal weekend drive from Madison AL to Atlanta I rarely see more than 1 or 2 911s of any year. Many weeks I see none. I've only seen one air cooled 911 in the past 7 or 8 months.
Not including Porsche events how many do you see in the wild during a normal week?

I see about 5 - 10 911s per week. I parked my 997 TT next to a 991 C4S cabriolet at Walmart yesterday. When I lived in a small town in the Midwest, I saw about 2 - 3 911s per month.

I am lucky ( or not) to live in Newport Beach, CA. I have to say, most Porsche's are very common to see here. You most likely could buy any model P car you wanted in a day or so.
I am lucky to get to see them. Maybe 30 or so per week.

Live in Long Beach Ca so I see quite a few running up and down PCH on the weekends especially. However I swear I see more Z06's than 911's, makes me happy I didn't go the Corvette route.

Rarely do I see another 911 from any year in my area of rural North Carolina. Rarely means maybe one per month.

Chester County, PA... and on my commute I see 5-6 a day, and 2-3 are in the office parking lot. On some twisty roads on weekends in rural Chester County, I will easily see 10+, because there are some serious drivers' roads.
In South Jersey, I can go weeks without seeing one.

I live in Miami so as you can imagine there are a lot. 95% of them are 991's.
EDIT: To answer your question, I see about 8-10 per day. Not as common as the G63 AMG though

Hmm, now that you mention it, not many on this side, east side of Portland. Maybe 1-2 in last 2 weeks, but my commute is boring and short with the oil barely getting warmed up by the time I make it in to work.

Only 1-2 per day, if that.....and they are usually the same ones..
This summer I drove from Seattle to Sacramento, 800 miles each way. One day down, the next day back...Saw NOT ONE 911, but probably 20-30 Vettes. I was surprised at the absence of 911's, especially in California, though it was all freeway driving..
