Mine's not quite as modded as yours (intake, 3" catback, no cat/air pump/AVC, uprated shocks, strut brace, etc) but it's my only car and gets driven about 250 miles a week, as much of that as possible with the roof down! I've got more mods planned as the money comes but I'll still keep driving it every day. My much-more-modified '84 Cosmo (12A Turbo) was also driven every day for 5 years.

Daily. You'd need a crowbar to get my *** out of it sometimes. Fun to drive, great sound system... I don't care about racking up miles - I bought it to enjoy it.

Don't drive mine much but it seems it's always in my shop or a proffesionals shop getting upgrades added or something done. Small town so it's not worth it just to start it up, drive 1.5 miles and shut off like I do every day to and from work. When I do drive it I try try to at least make it a 2 hour affair. I find a place to go and just drive. When I get there I turn around and come back. Zoom Zoom Zoom

I drive daily, Monday thru Thursday, over 500 miles a week in my vert.
I have not logged 6014 miles since my rebuild. Oil changeed @ 500, 1500, 3000, 6000. I have checked timing, idle, leaks, and other vitals 3x. The car runs tight. I will start to rev it to redine. Now, it is very smooth to 6500 rpms....working its way up slowly.

I drove mine every day for 14 months after I bought it, execpt for a few days here and there for down time fixing the odd thing. but it's been parked since the end of NOV to keep the salt off my rust free body and to save me some gas and insurance money. It'll back on every day starting in april.

I did daily-drive my TII about 150-200 miles a week. I kinda hated putting miles on it, but when the driving's that much fun...who cares!
Now, I find rides with my friends and my brothers while my car takes a "vacation" in the garage.
