I have a POS 97 accord that I bought for daily commutes, but I find I end up taking the G more than the beater.

It's my daily driver, but if I have to travel I take my wife's car to the airport. I don't want to park the G in any of Dulles Airport's garages. She likes having the G when I'm out of town anyway.

The G does make sitting in DC traffic more tolerable.

Daily driver for me too. I'm at 18K and have had it for little over a year. I drive it all winter too, I just stick 18" winter tires on it then.

Daily driver! Just got it last week and I already have 300 miles on it!
I have a beater volvo S80 but I don't trust it mechanically to handle too many miles. I was considering leasing the G but I would put wayyy too many miles on it, either way, whenever the next G comes out which I think will look like the essence.. I'm getting that! - hopefully its 3+ years so I can enjoy my G for a while.

Daily during the Summer (4-5 months or so) and then parked for the winter.

Had it for a daily for a year and half with 28k miles. Then I bought a beater since I commute 30-45 minutes everyday in Dallas traffic. I don't have to worry about people parking next to me either. Now she is a weekender and sometimes I like to drive her during the week just for fun.


And at 22yo (when I bought my car) and the amount of money and time that I spend on my G, I feel like a own a Ferrari so she is treated just like one.

Summer only semi daily driver, bought in March of 08, currently has only 5300 miles on it.
I have an 03 Saab 9-5 Aero that I use for the winter, or when it rains in the summer.

Daily driver. I paid a ton of money for it, so I am going to get maximum enjoyment out of it. It gets driven through the winter too- thow some 18" winter wheels and Vredestein snow tires on it and it handles great!
