Default What else do you drive beside Ur Sc430

I was just wondering does anybody have another car besides their SC430. I was planning to just get a cummute car like a honda and drive my SC430 on the weekend. I don't want to put that much miles on the car and to save gas. I was wondering is there anybody out there that thinks like me.

Thanks

Yes, the SC430 is my weekend car too, it's one year "older" than the G35coupe but has less mileage on it now.

The sc430's my gf's car but her workplace is very close to home so she barely puts any miles on the car on the few days a week she works. I have an Infiniti QX56 right now but I miss having a sports car plus the mpg is kicking my a$$. Whenever I do get another sports car, it'll be my weekend car & I'll get a daily driver soon afterwards. I'm thinking of getting the Smart fortwo when it comes out in Jan. 08. Ok, don't laugh...not too much at least. For some reason, I'm drawn to cheap (financially speaking) funky cars (Smart fortwo, Scion xB, Honda Fit, Toyota Yaris hatcback, etc.) as a daily driver plus all of those cars get great gas mileage (33 mpg+).

An RX for the hauling and passenger space, and use in the snow.

Highly recommended.

For the nice days & nearby commute...I'm toolin around in my '02 SC430 ....on nice days but far commute....it would be the fuel efficient '04 Mini Cooper "purple" (license plate "NURPLE" aka clown car). Then there's the "cycle", Vulcan Nomad. In addition, for bad weather days...there is the 'work horse" &/or "snow" mobile with 130,000 miles which is an '02 Mitsubushi Montero.

i mean if you reallly want good gas mileage go with the Toyota Prius Hybrid. Damn that "thing" gets over 65mpg on highway......

I bought my '02 SC430 new in the summer of 2001 and put it away every winter.
Until a week ago, my winter/hauling car was an '02 Outback which I traded, along with several hundred shares of RS Partners fund, for an '07 RX350 (Flint Mica/Black). Nice car!
