Plan your life and buy accordingly. Live in FL and worry about snow? well why stop there, How is it in the arctic?

I'd much prefer to DD a loaded Honda Accord than a 370z. Everyone is different though
If your daily driver needs to sit three and you bought a two seater, then the entire statement is a Non starter.

Straw man argument:


Anyone can change the scenario. If you buy the Accord and then decide you need to drive six clients around, add in a few feet of snow and you still have a lousey DD. Should have bought the bus. Certainly 4WD.

I have had a two seat Z car for over 30 years as my DD and never hit snow, nor multiple unexpected clients needing a ride. We have taxi service in our area.

I am far more concerned with the possibility of the road opening up and finding myself alone with some curves, and not having my Z, then worrying about work.

Everyone is different though, as you said b15.
