Default How many of you use your Corvette base C-6 coupe as a daily driver?

Or use it as your sole means of transportation?

My DD, but not my sole transportation. Sometimes I drive my wife's Pontiac Vibe, but not often unless she's in the car with me.

I've got 22K miles on my 06.

'08, MN6, NPP, LT3. The only problem as a DD is there are only 7 days in the week to drive it!

Yep DD checking in '08 34,000 miles since I bought it November 30 2007. No problems so far other than some misdirected envy from the coworkers.
