    Usually for trips or track. I don't enjoy driving a fat 2 door car with low ground clearance for the daily grind

    I'd say an average of once a week, usually on a weekend.

    between aug.1 (when i took delivery) and nov. 28 when winter came, i probably averaged 2-3 times/week.
    went on 600mile trip labor day weekend and many 100mile jaunts afterward.
    i would estimate 3600miles total in those 4mo. just changed the oil last week and am preparing for the
    fuel line replacement pm. after that, whatever pm work is warranted.

    3 - 4 times per month, 9 months out of the year.
    I put 2500 - 3000 miles per year on the car.

    I take the car twice per year to be serviced (Spring & Fall).
    Normally all I do is an oil change and brake fluid flush (for the 2 - 3 track days I go to a year).
    Here is a pic of my car up on the lift in the shop.

    I probably average 1 or 2 times per month. I have only put about 5,000 miles in about 2.5 years of ownership. Usually when I do go driving it is for at least around 100 miles or more.

    My '02 360 F1 coupe is driven average 3-5 times per week year round, about 7,500 miles per year. No problems at all so service has been by the book, so far about twice per year. It's just too much fun to have it sitting in the garage.

    Fortunately, I live in ideal weather 12 months a year. Therefore, I drive both of my Ferraris every day. They are my daily drivers. The Ferraris that have the least amount of problems are the ones that are consistently driven on a regular basis. These cars are meant to be enjoyed and therefore DRIVEN!!

    Well, the guy who owned my 360 before I did averaged around 110 miles per MONTH.

    I average about 80 miles per MONTH. I should drive it more.

    My 308 was my weekend toy because I worked in a not so good area, but I still put 10k miles on it from June '00 until Feb '03.

    Testarossa was my daily driver from July '04 until October '05. Took it out in rain, it even saw snow and a hurricane once :) !! Put a total of 20k miles on it.
