For right now

The miles rack up fast in these cars , but it's meant to be driven.

Mine is a daily driver, but it is still not driven that much. Maybe 7500 miles a year. It is great to work from home.

Mine is for when I feel the need for speed, and whenever I know I can park somewhere without getting a dent. One year next month and I’m still dent free.

I drive mine about 90% of the time. It stays in the garage a few days a month, so I can drive my 96 GT.

The car belongs on the road, not in the museum.

Oh I just don't want some moron at college to mess with mine, and my budget is tight, so gas is less in my beater.

My cobra is my daily driver. I love driving this car everyday and would never drive anything but a V8 mustang for daily driving. I also like how the car gets a ton of looks. I can be sitting at a stop light or in a parking lot and people stare as they drive by or even say how much they love my car.
