Default Is your ITR your daily driven car?

Just wondering who uses their ITR as their daily driven car.

And one more, how will the Spoon front lip spoiler hold up to being daily driven?

well first you need a JDM front end for a Spoon lip.

I daily drive my FBP while the CW sleeps in the garage.

Boba- who feels lucky to own 2 ITR's

I'll be catching up to you soon ITR566.
Mine is a 2000 with 27,777 miles on it.. It was a weekend driver when I first got it but then became a daily driver around September last year.

Smurf, you get to enjoy the car more if its a daily driver.

Daily driver, but also daily headache when its your only car and have to take it to places with a lot of minivans(malls etc.). And thieves who think that you dont need your red emblems

Seeing as how my work just decided to stop paying for my safe and secure garage parking downtown I will be leaving the R at home and finding aother transportation to/from work.

The R will now be my fun evening/weekend/autox/lapping car...

Used to have a beater, but then figured: I spent all this money on the ITR, why not drive it? Put on 900 miles on it this week alone

I also have a Spoon lip, it holds up okay. There'll be scratches, so prepare for it

97 CW (summer) daily driven with the JDM frontend. The Spoon CF front lip stays home though. I figure you can repaint the OEM Japanese lip when needed or even order a new one for cheap enough. However, if I bang up the Spoon CF front lip I probably can't repair it at all.

I just got mine about a month ago, a 97 with 32000 miles on it. I drove it everyday for about a week and put 1000 miles on it. I drive it on the weekends and when i get home from work now. My daily driver is a ranger splash with hydraulics.

Mine is daily driven, to/from work. Hoping to take her to lapping days soon. Lucky enough to have other cars to drive when I know I won't find decent parking at my destination.

Everyday during the week!
Average about 50 miles a day!
And I thought, I had high mileage on my car!
Atleast, I'm not in the same boat alone!
00-ITR@20500 and counting!

another confession from a daily driver - my 98 R rolled over the 60,000 mile mark on the way to Gingerman last week. mine is an all season player. it gets different shoes for the different road conditions (summer, winter, track).
