Everyday! It is my daily driver, and my '02 Camaro SS is my "garage queen". My SS Camaro is 4 years old and has a hair under 6000 miles on it. I've had my 2IS for a month and a half and I'm at 3000.

I take my motorcycle to work Mondays to Wednesdays, and then use the IS Thursdays and Fridays.

Depending on what I'm doing on the weekend, it's a tossup...

I have a total of 7 vehicles so if it rains I take one of the others. But it's usually
my daily driver to work every day for 50 plus miles depending on errands.

I drive less than 10,000 km/year. When I traded in my last car it was at the end of a 3year lease and it went with 28,000km.

Six months and 2000 miles. I seem to use my other cars more in an effort to "save" the IS for special times. DUH. How dumb is that? Yeah, think I'll go out and drive that car right now. Bye!

I am so glad I am not the only DAILY COMMUTER! I drive my IS250 everyday and then on the weekends! Just took it in for my 5K service and I got it on Cinco de Mayo.. so 2 months..
BUT I love this car.. I thought about buying a cheap commuter car.. but.. come on realistically.. its what a car is for right?
