My supercharged '07 GT was a DD. Wouldn't have it any other way. I bought all season high performance tires for it and even drove it in the winter with light snow on the ground.

My '11 GT is a DD, as well, and always will be while I own it. I'm just a poor, working guy, so I can't afford to use my S197 for limited duty. Maybe when my kids are grown up and move out.

For the most part I drive it Daily. Been trying to mix it up and drive my foxbody a few days a week. Now, the weekend driver is my fiances 2010 Jetta.

i daily drive mine. vortech supercharged. i dont even have a garage so there is no point in not driving it. i spray it down with the water hose in the morning and the drive to work blows the water off. if i drive my truck to work when i come home the car looks terrible because the dew has water spotted it...

I do. 50,000 miles in 3 years only from living in a big city, it would be half that if I lived in a small town. The body has really suffered in that time. Ran over wet white paint on the road and my tires flung it all over the lower part of the car, a ding on the door from a shopping cart at walmart, a dent over the left rear wheel well where someone backed into it (no note or anything) and to top it off lots of spider webs and water spots in the paint. Oh well it runs like a champ.

I daily drove mine up till 109k miles when I had the engine built. I had to get a another car at the time while the stang was down so now it's a fair weather driver but I will drive it in the winter as long as there's no snow or rain.
