I got mine in late May, and now it has 4,700 miles. My daily commute to work is 64 miles round trip....Wednesday is about 200 miles round trip ( I was on the freeway a total of 5 hours yesterday going bumper to bumper....and that's my typical Wednesday commute). This L.A./O.C. traffic is killing me.

I estimate about 25,000 miles a year if I use 2IS daily. I think I need a hybrid that takes me to the carpool lane to zoom past everyone on the freeway.

I estimated about 24,000+ if I'm LUCKY. I have around 2000 for 1 month and that's me attempting to NOT drive my car too often.

6 miles roundtrip. I average 5,000 miles per year. Based on driving habits over the past 11 years.

i say dont worry about the mileage. you're paying for a fine car so why not use it as much as possible ??? im sure everyone on this board remember those early days of ownership when you're just driving to no where just to be in the car

It will be three days for my one year anniversary for my car! I've only put on 7,200 miles on it, its not my daily driver, but i thought i would put on more. 7,200 is quite low.

Same here...but it takes 45 minutes each way to get there. D.C. metro area traffic sucks. I have to leave the house an hour early to travel 7 miles to work. Just had to vent..didnt mean to attempt a thread hijack.
