I don't exclusively drive my Boxster to and from work, but I do so as much as I can and average about 7000 miles per year. The drive is about 60 miles round trip and I am fortunate that I don't have a lot of traffic.

I think driving the car is good for it. It's a 2000 base with about 116,000 miles on it. I bought it in 2006 when it had 30,000 miles on it.

My "other car" during my Boxster ownership has been a 1996 Infiniti G20. Last week I bought a 2005 Mercedes C230 that will eventually replace the G20. I'm going to miss the G20, because I've owned it since it was new. I let my family convince me that I needed to have a car with side impact protection.

I'm putting the car repair and part-hunting skills I've learned on the Boxster to use on the Mercedes.
