I just passed my first month of PCar ownership. Already put 3000 miles on my Boxster S. At this rate I will drive 36000 in a year. I commute to work every day and take any opportunity to drive anwhere. I have driven to far east Texas for some BBQ, and to New Orleans for a company convention. My previous 3 cars were a 2000 nissan maxima, a 1998 GMC sonoma, and a 1991 Ford Tempo. I'm sure you all understand. I am making up for 10 years of lost driving fun...

Over this past winter, I put 5K on the clock. I plan on driving the wheels, fenders, bumpers, seats, mirrors, exhaust, and everything else off of this car until I'm sitting in a pile of dust somewhere

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.

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".

5000 miles/year, 21k in 4 years. Mostly I just don't drive it enough!

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.
