I mean just a day or two after I posted how I use it as a daily driver one of the most aggravating things happened.

I work at a 2 story office building with its own large parking lot thats landscaped and private. I have no problem parking all to myself, and I mean no one ever parks anywhere near me. Its a small corp office - about 100 people - and everyone mostly knows everyone. plus, no one wants to walk to where I park. lol.

I am walking out to my car today at lunch and the landscape guys are using blowers. one of them is blowing stuff right under my car, and hes close. He walks around and is blowing stuff under from the other side (exactly WHAT is he trying to accomplish??)

I figure its not worth it to say anything and I approach and get in the car, as I am pulling my sunshade down I hear a crazy noise, and the guy is now blowing the actual car. hes blowing off the hood and top and starts to move around to the doors.

I lost it. I got out of the car and yelled "what the #### are you doing? don't blow the ####ing car. what the #### are you doing??" etc etc etc

so his boss comes over and points to another area and sends him off. I tell the boss its cool but he had no business blowing off the actual car. The boss was very nice and apologetic. I complain to my company person who handles the landscape contracts and she says we get complaints from alot of employees and even if we change landscape companies we still have problems, but she will tell them do NOT do anything to the cars. shes a great lady.

Being a daily driver is tough enough, black is hard to keep clean as it is, but a guy using a blower on the actual car is one of those unexpected things that would never happen to a weekend car. Not enough to make me change to another DD, but was enough to almost give me a heart attack I was so mad.

It actually works well for blowing the pollen off your car in the spring as long as you're sucking in clean air :icon17:

But blowing sand and leaves up against your paint is not cool.

At work they did this to my brothers car, he actualy took a photo while he was seething mad

Now due to the type of place where we work, there is ALOT of camera's for every angle being recorded and saved for later playback.

BUt if there was no camera's that dude would be on the ground with his leaf blower dented where it met his skull.

And this is not a really nice paved lot, its a super grainy rocks, peddles, pot hole ridden cheap pavement that has more debri/glass than i care to think.

I'd treat it the same as my 04' Z when I baught it....Its economic enough to be a DD..not quite nice enough to be a weekend only car in my eyes at least..unless I put a good amount of money into mods...aka...turbo, zele kit, volks, etc etc.

Is your Z a daily driver?
 

So lets take a little poll, who here drives their Z car as a daily driver? :tup:

Shouldn't you have made it a poll?

I daily drive my Z.

:shakes head:

Dang you guys are quick! I was making a poll lol.

Actually, forget what I said, there already is a poll ... in another thread.
