I only get to put about 300 miles a week on this baby. It usually sits in the garage at night. More than a daily driver though. It is a night driver, too. Bought it with 62k January of 2005. It has about 92k on it now. I guess I put a couple of miles on it. I try to baby the beast, you know.

Well i couldnt read all the pages.. But i drive mine pretty much every day.. I only live .6 miles away from work.. so thats about 2 miles a day maybe 5 if i go some where else. I been thinkin bout buying a beater but then i think.. Why buy a vehicle that is used for transportation and not use it as so>? so i dont know if i will buy a beater or not.. I only got 19k on my odometer so i would like to keep miles off it.. But i dont know.... Would u buy a house and not live in it so nothing happens and it stays clean so its worth more and buy a lil piece of **** house to live ur life in???

Yup, Daily drive mine, park her in the lots at college, have a set of rims on snow tires for winter, rain gaurds for the hood scoops etc lol...

If the guy I bought it from knew I was going to drive it in the rain and snow he wouldnt have sold it to me tho lol, being it had never seen rain in its entire 24k mile life before I bought it...now after owning it for 1 year 2 months I have put on 16k miles so far

You say its 1 of 311. How did you find that out? is there a website saying how many Formula's were made per year?. I was just wondering how many 00 T/A M6's were ever made.
