Friday, June 29th, is the date of the 7th Annual Drive Your Corvette To Work Day, sponsored by Mid America Motorworks. In honor of Drive Your Corvette To Work Day, enthusiasts across the United States make “America’s Sports Car” their commuter car for the day. Every year, the Friday closest to June 30, Corvettes official birthday, is chosen to observe Drive Your Corvette To Work Day.

I drive mines whenever I get a chance. Poor baby is undergoing a clutch job right now but as soon as she's done, she's getting a wash, wax and will be driven to work. Some R8 seems to think he owns the parking lot now that I'm gone. LOL

The only cars I have to drive to work are my 06Z06 and the 07 vert. It's only a matter of which car I choose from one day to the next.

My last vette I took to work for a full week as my GTO was getting some body mods done to it. Someone made the comment "I was wondering who had the vette here, someone is making too much money?"
WTF!?
Unfortunately, too many jealous people at my work place. My boss's boss already "thinks" I make too much $$........dick.

I drive mine to work everyday too.

I've also received the whole "we're paying you too much!" line. Well, I am 24. But, hey - that's what college was for, right.

Everyday that the sun is shining. My poor Honda (bought to be the daily driver) sits alone at home most of the time, only used when it rains.
