I daily drive a NA Miata now. It's even more fun and cheaper than the BRZ!

I part-time daily my FRS with my 4 Runner for now. I'm seriously thinking of replacing the 4 Runner for an older Volvo wagon (240/740/850 - whatever's cheap & available at the time) which will also share dd duties. Eventually this year, I'll get my NA Miata back into rotation...

Anyone have an IS300? I've been thinking about picking one up as a cheap daily driver... Cheap, nice interior, driftable, not totally boring.... Seems like a good option.

Daily on my 02 Accord V6 and sometimes the 86 once or twice a week. Of course, the 4 door boat is roomier and more comfortable but way too boring.

love my frs but driving these California roads is killing it. Lost a diffuser after running over a truck tire I could not avoid and got some rock chips on my fender. Started a new job about a month and half ago and drive 60 miles back and forth. Not mad about putting the miles on my frs but the roads I take to work has a lot of trucks driving on them and they throw rocks at you or leave tires in the middle of the freeway. Maybe I should buy a used brz for a DD lol

I daily drive my 89 Volvo 765 turbo. Automatic, power everything, leather seats, ice cold ac, 350k and it's faster than my frs when I turn the boost up.

My mk6 GTI could be considered the "daily driver". I don't feel bad driving it through pothole-ridden city roads, and I can just throw the DSG into auto when mindlessly sitting in bumper-to-bumper traffic. If I wasn't worried about knocking my track alignment out of spec, the FR-S would be fine too.

The 2015 FR-S is my DD. The Mustang is going to be the weekend fun toy / track car.
