370Z: Daily Driver or Weekend Car?

spitfire9200 · 06-08-2010, 11:49 AM

it's my daily.. but I go into DC too, so I just metro everyday. I don't drive except on the weekends.... I got a hookup on parking so I drive like... 1 mile to park at the station, but that's it. It's a very secluded spot and I don't park near anyone.

I can't believe you would even consider driving your Z into DC. That is car suicide, as well as expensive..

just my .02

That is true, when I visited my gf at DC, I noticed some areas the road is very bad. I guess it depends where you are located at. Another thing is some people think there is a lot of road noise.

That, and the drivers there don't give a crap. I've watched people back into/hit people while parking and not leave notes. Seen people swipe cars, seen people lean/sit on cars. Seen people ding the crap out of cars... plus parking is impossible/expensive.

Like I said not trying to be a ****, just my experience!

Thanks for your response

Metro ing is how I got away w/out a car for a few months now. I have parking at work, not ideal but can find good spots....
I have driven into the city for the past 3 years now just not in a z like car... I will keep my fingers crossed if I do end up driving in the city..

I travel a lot, so at best case, i only get to drive mine 3 days a week. So, YES, mine is a daily driver, if i'm in this state!
