My Z is for sunny day driving only. So far it hasn't seen a rain drop. I got it as a retirement gift to myself. My DD is a 2008 Toyota Tundra, talk about a HUGE difference in vehicles. I plan on having my Z forever and passing it on to my son someday.

The Z is my driver when I'm just driving from place to place. If I have to haul people and stuff, then the Avalanche has to get out.

The Z is my DD and I am not looking forward to snow whatsoever. I've had an S2K previously and that was horrible in winter conditions. I might look into a used WRX soon for the offseason and garage the Z.

The Z was my only car until I put 15,000 miles on it in 5 months. Now I drive a POS Honda to work everyday and let me tell you, nothing has ever made me miss my Z so much.

I have too many vehicles! In addition to the Z I have the following options to choose from in the morning:
-MKV GTI mainly used as my DD
-HD Night Rod Special
- Or the company car, work related only, 12 Ford Focus

I still drive the Z most of the time since the weather has been great.

Was a 4th car until we sold the Porsche. I drive it a few times a week. Sometimes I don't drive it for up to 2 weeks. Just depends.
