Pretty much weekends and nice nights after work. Black is too hard to keep clean.

MY dd is a 92 Topaz, it's a ugly car but is in good shape and runs like a top. I love driving it because I don't give a **** about it, I park anyplace and even leave the keys in it Plus there is no way I would put all my tools in my SS and take it to job sites.

Averaging 20-25K a year, 200K + on clock. Forty miles a day, 5 days a week, work commute, plus 4 cross country trips. Drive them till the wheels fall off! lol . Major rebuild @ 175K.

If I am lucky enough and the weather is good , I usually get my car out once a week. Rest of the time I either drive my wifes Buick or I drive my company car.

Right now I have 24k miles on my car and plan on keeping it as low as possible.

like pete said, black is just to hard to keep clean, i drive mine about once a week or a couple times a weekend if there's a meet or a group track day, i love every second of driving it, its a very dear friend of mine, and when i got home from vacation i gave it a huge hug and kiss, lol.

i have a 93 grand prix as a daily driver, like pete said its much better being able to just get in and drive and not really worry about the car. I like my grand prix because i can still smoke most rice burners in it and it is so funny when i do, and it gets good gas mileage, and the car is pretty much in mint condition so i dont mind driving it.

my 95 z28 was my dd until yesterday i bought a crappy 95 dodge neon for $300.00 bucks. guess i should complain about it if it was that cheap. i wanted to give my z28 a break. my plans are to drive my camaro on some weekends and especially if i am hanging out in the streets.
