    Don't tell me I'm the only member :p

    Seriously, anyone else daily drive their F355? I've driven mine everyday since I had it at this rate I'll be adding 25k miles/year on it , rain or shine. Only plan on putting it up if it snows.

    said with tongue in cheek LOL! Part of the specialness and the event of driving my 355 would be lost if it simply became a daily driver. I am quite content to take it out as a treat to myself whenever I can but not too much...if that makes sense.

    +1, count me in! technically somewhere between daily and weekly, sharing miles with the STi and Firebird convertible. It goes to work, Home Depot, grocery shopping...and tonight out for wings. I won't take it out in the rain purposely...but I don't sweat taking it to work if there's a chance of getting caught in the rain during the day.

    i would take mine out all the time if it worked. Once I get a couple of issues sorted out ill drive it 3 or 4 times a week, regardless of weather. Cars are meant to be driven, not garaged. For proof I drive my car when it rains see here:

    I know exactly what you mean!!! Its like if one "only" dates beautiful women...it would get boring and lose its enchantment after awhile...:eek:...... so the trick would be to go out with "mostly" ugly women....... then when the gorgeous girl comes around it would be real treat :D!!!! ........................ or sort of like eating too much caviar..... or lobster.... or fillet....... or stonecrab...... or sashimi........or.....:eek:.....

    Just kidding, I know what you are saying and I agree...... ;) :p!!!!!

    I've seen your threads Shivam, just hang in there once you get he initial quirks work out it'll be a solid car.

    By the way I've got a set of Hyperflows in stock with your name on it whenever you're ready ;)

    very nice, I got a massively busy travel schedule between the coasts for the next 3 weeks. After that I will call you to arrange a purchase as long as its a great deal:)

    P.S. I will never give up on the 355, whatever effort it requires, it will get. It is simply the best car in the world ever!

    A guy in Aussie land uses his 355 Challenge as a daily driver. He has racked up 23,000km since taking ownership of his car around 1 year ago now. :):)

    I use mine as daily car too. Try not to go out when it rains though, I have done about 12,000 km since I bought her in Mar 06.

    I've driven mine everyday for about a month now, and i still feel incredibly lucky to turn the key. I know people change, but I don't think it will ever get old.
