For four years my Cobra was my daily driver, driving a total of 40 miles of highway driving per day. Now I have another car for work because I was racking up some mileage. The car ran great, I just was getting used to driving it every day and the interior was starting to show some wear.

daily driver here.....with 450 RWHP it makes for an expensive task , but I wouldn't want to drive anything else. I actually have a 2001 Ford Pick-up that I drive to work and home, but I live 2 minutes from work so that doesnt really count. I just hate missing the opportunity to roll up next to an SS or a vette and be driving my truck. That would definitely be an opportunity wasted.

Yup, definitly a daily here. Runs great, makes driving to work everyday so much fun. Wouldn't drive any other, cuz then at certain times...I'd be like "Damn, wish I was in my Cobra!"

Not as much as it used to be, as we have a little Ranger truck that I drive to work and back quite a bit of the time now. However, the Cobra is getting more and more miles these days, and the odometer is about to hit 76k miles.

It's my daily driver, 50 miles a day back & forth to work. I'm sure in the winter it will get some days off but not many.

well, it was when i first got it...but not in the winter...then i decided to get a truck to keep the mileage and wear off of the cobra...the cobra is more economical than the truck thats for sure

and MAN do i HATE it when i have a nice opportunity with rice or a GM car and im in my truck...that sucks so much

once i get my mac springs changed out to something less harsh, it might come out a little more often...but still not in bad weather

Mine is a daily driver. But it doesn't go to restuarants, movie theaters, shopping malls, I just take my dads truck. I drive to work, school sometimes, and to friends houses. I have put 13,000 miles on it since March of 2002. It is stored in the winter, and I am driving it daily because I sold my 98 GTP to a friend in need of a car. I picked up a 00 GT in April, and am in the process of putting that together. So until the GT is done, the Cobra is a daily driver.
