    I bought my 458 to be a daily driver. In fact it is my only car, so I actually do drive it everyday. I live in an area that gets snow about two weeks out of a full year. I drive the 458 in all conditions except active snow, for that I’ll just rent something from Enterprise for a few days.

    Definition of a garage Queen? No I don't drive it once a day. I drive my 458 usually once a week. No stop and go, Twisties followed by 15 miles of freeway all in all equaling 35 to 50 miles depending on the route chosen. Never ever do I put it away cold with less than 20miles driven, no drives to the corner store or just poke along.

    I like your plan. But I know initially I’ll be happy just to drive it around the driveway!

    I daily drive my 458. At the rate I am putting on miles, I'll need to be buying someone's garage queen in 3 or 4 years to replace my worn out one.

    There's an old saying- "Ships are safe at harbor, but that's not what ships are for."

    Is this a challenge? Because I put 45 thousand miles in 2 years on the 720S I traded in for the F8 I'm driving now. Next rally with goldRush in June alone will put about 3k miles on it. :)
