Who daily drives their WS6/Firehawk? I drive mine about 20k a year.
I feel guilty but at the same time i enjoy it.
My job is in Sales so every so often I'll have appts out of the office with certain clients.
It's so damn enjoyable though, i could never see myself driving a Honda every day. It makes more sense to preserve the bird, but i want to enjoy it too.
Anyone else daily drive their bird as their true commuter???

Not really built for city driving, but it sure is fun.

From Jan 02 - Mar 07 I drove my CETA daily. But my job was only 2.5 miles away....so after work sometimes I would take the 20 mile long way home. Haha
Since 07 it's been retired to weekend fun car/show car.

Sounds like most of you guys are like me.
Drive it, enjoy it, then restore it.
When you think about it we spend a ton of time in our cars. I wish i had two of them so i could preserve one, and then keep the other for fun factor. I wouldnt feel so guilty knowing i had another in the stable at home.

My DD now is a one owner 99 TA with a few bolt ons but back in the day i used my turbo WS6 3-4 days a week and loved it. The LS1 gets very good MPG for a mid displacment V8 as long as you keep your foot out of it. Plus they will last forever if you take care of them.

I drove my '99 WS6 Formula daily for the last 2-1/2 years, but recently decided to switch back to another one of our cars since I've got two boys under age 3 and getting them in and out of car seats is tough on my back some days.
If it's a nice day, and I don't have to pick up the boys then I still usually drive the WS6.
