What's your daily driver (car, truck, etc.)?

A civic and a Lambo? That's gotta be an adjustment in perspective.

Hopefully a Gallardo, if a Diablo I would think climbing into the Civic every Monday would induce some sort of schizophrenic reaction, as you drive down the road wondering a. why no one is staring at you and b. is my car still running?

LMAO! Thanks for the laugh. That would be a pretty weird experience. Actually, my weekend driver is only a '78 Z28 Camaro, 4spd (30k original mi.)
A guy can dream though (to quote you)..:thumbup:

Yukon 4x4 (and I _do_ mean DAILY driver); BMW 740iL (hasn't been out of the garage in weeks); Mustang 5.0 Cobra convertible for summer); Rolls-Royce Corniche convertible (for dark nights when no one can see me and the others are all in for service :o )
 
Buick Regal GS. Total sleeper. Understated styling and a Supercharged V6 that moves it like a bat out of hell. Stiffened up the chasis with sway bars, trailing arms and some braces and brakes off a police package chevy impala to improve handeling since the car was way overpowered for its grandma suspension. Working up to a pully size drop on the blower.

"Only"??? That is one gorgeous car! :thumbup: Is it as nice "in the flesh" as the photo makes it appear?

(see, I was a foolish person for many years and started with the exotics and high-end stuff - like Testarossa, 328GTSi, etc. Now that I am old and wiser (well, older anyway) I have started to appreciate the REAL "fun" cars: older Mustangs, older Camaros, older Firebirds, etc. And for the record, I appreciate a mint condition early Honda Civic as much as I appreciate a split-window 'Vette. IMHO, there is a world of difference between being a car enthusiast and being a car snob.)
 
depends, i drive a '95 LT1 corvette when the weather is nice/only me and my son/etc, other days i drive a '03 impala, fixing to get myself something new for a daily driver and give my son the impala though, maybe a BMW 3 or 5 series, or a chrysler 300, like the new mustangs a lot but the only con is its made by ford lol.
 
I work out of my home so I really don't have a daily driver. My wife's "shopping" car is a 2004 Pilot. On the weekends I use either a 2005 Rubicon or a 2003 'Vette, mostly the Jeep.

Thanks! I say 'only' because the '68 Camaro is my absolute favorite. I owned one before I got the '78 but it wasn't the original color or drivetrain. I wanted something that was 100% bone stock, so when I found this one I snapped it up as the price was right. I got it from the original owner, who had it re-painted in '79 as he didn't like GM's original water based paint. Nothing has been changed since then. He had a big car collection and rotated them so none got many miles...it's like stepping into a time machine...
 
In any case this should be your last vehicle !!!

2006 Toyota Highlander Hybrid LE -- and it's laughing at me now that I've learned that you only get the $2600 tax credit if you OWE at least that much in taxes.
