Daily driver. Here in Florida it is year round. The only time I switch to the pickup is on the occasion on a torrential rainstorm. 2002S w about 46k mi.

Mid-May will mark one year of ownership. Daily driver until mid-October, now garaged and waiting for the release of Winter's icy grip. Then it will be a DD once again.

What if it's a daily driver, but you have multiple daily drivers? In other words, the Boxster gets used for DD duties whenever I feel like taking it to work, groceries, gun range, etc, but on other days I feel like taking something else. So it probably gets DD'd maybe 100 days a year.

Not quite a daily driver, I only take it out if its supposed to be nice. Average 8,500 mile the last 3 years and drove 1,278 miles in DE events last year and 7 autocross events last year. This year 308 miles in DE already and first autocross this Sunday
