				What do you guys drive on a daily basis?  I know for some of you the F-bodies are track/weekend cars only.  I want to know what you're driving during the week and if you like it or not. My Trans Am is my current daily driver. It goes to work 5 days a week. My wife drives a '99 Blazer which we use for errands, shopping, and trips. I am looking into a new daily driver for me (so the TA can retire to weekend duty) and am curious to see what everybody else is driving. |

				Pat, you don't know how tempting that is, but what are the odds I could leave it as-is and resist the urge to modify? (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif) What I'd actually love to have is a 99 or 2000 323/325 BMW Coupe (would do a sedan if I had to) or a used C5. Both can be had under $25K at this point but there are several factors. 1. Do I really need to spend that kind of money on a 3rd car? 2. I've always loved the 3 series, but why buy one when I could get a Vette for the same price, and I've wanted a Vette since I was 5 yrs old. 3. Do I really want to daily drive a Vette and run it into the ground? 4. Should I do something more like in the $10K range, but what is going to give me reliability and a touch of class/upscale-ness at that price? 5. Do I need a 3rd car at all, realizing 1 car would have to sit in the driveway year-round, would it be better fiscally, even if not as practical, to continue to daily drive the Trans Am? |
