I haven't even had mine a month, so I voted based on the previous mileage I put on my last car, which was about 10,000 per year. It's my daily driver, so it should be about the same.

2002 S...just ticked over 13k miles. Sits in the garage with my 911 waiting to be driven, but nice days only. Most miles get racked up to and from my Wisconsin home in Elkhart Lake; a two hour drive from home. 17 year old son will be doing his first autocrass in the car April 27...should be a blast. 911 is relegated to mostly track duty.

MY job makes it impractical to use it for work but I do try to drive it about twice a week. So I'm guessing about 3k~5K/year. This summer will be my first summer with the car so I anticipate it will get a lot of use. I plan on going to 'Tail of the Dragon' sometime in July and again in sept. with the rest of you forum guys. Right now the pollen is soooo bad in my area that it's in the garage until the end of April. Pollen leaves a thick yellow film on all cars just overnight.

But as some have already said I will not find myself saying later " Damn I wish I had driven that car more often".

Miles to go...

I bought my first Porsche (used) in December and I have 1k on her so far this winter. This summer should see another 4k for a total of 5-6k this year. It sure cured my midlife crisis!
Total milage to date= 97.5K

Mine had averaged about 2k/yr until I bought it last May. I really didn't expect to drive it as much as I have - 10k since then - but I just can't stand not to drive it for more than a few days. Broke down and got a second set of wheels so I could have all-seasons for the winter and F1s for the summer.
