Mine's a "daily" too, except I just don't drive ever day, lol.

Sometimes it's more convenient to not drive in Hong Kong!

I daily drive my c63, 100km(60mile) a day as i live a little far from my school and work place. Straight piped with milltek, remapped, 498hp and just make me smile everytime i drive it. Bought in June this year. Was 49k on the clock and now 58k
Waiting for my 488gtb to arrive end of this year and replace my f12 as weekend car.
C63 has always been my pride and joy)

I daily drive mine all day, every day in Northwest Indiana/Southwest Michigan. It is showing signs of wear but it's a car. The meme above is spot on.

I daily drive mine (even though its less than a mile to work). Oil temp is only at 135 when I get to the office. I walk to work or bike in the wintertime, its just too darn hot here in South Florida and it rains unpredictably in the spring, summer and fall. On the weekends I ring the car out to get the moisture out of the oil and recharge the battery a bit.

Maybe I should get a Tesla for such a short daily commute; however, I think I enjoy the noise too much.

Used to be a DD, until I moved from Atlanta to Seattle. My company shipped my BMW as part of the relocation, (held off shipping my C63)...glad I did; BMW arrived looking like hell as if a bucket of gravel was poured all over it...car stunk inside. I rolled down the windows gravel grinding between the door/Windows.. They asked when would I ship my C63, no thanks pal! Left it in Georgia. That was 9 months ago. Good news I'm relocated to Dallas Texas in November and she's coming along. Can't wait.

DD mine for the past few months, just picked it up recently with 39k miles on it. My drive is only 10 miles or so a day though. It's saving miles on all my cars that are worth less, seems to make sense.

I drove my C63 daily 40 miles round-trip for nearly 4 years. Car was rock-solid. Definitely turned more heads than my E63 does now.

I daily mine. 3.5 miles is barely enough to get her warm, but once I hit 176F that last bit is a blast. Luckily I've got covered parking on both ends of the drive.

Daily car here as well. I work from home but I go to the gym daily which is about 25 miles round trip. Once everyone leaves in the morning I pull it into the garage so it's not outside baking.

I tried to do the low mileage insurance (7,000 mpy). That didn't work out. I DD mine but I'm gone 10-16 days a month. Bought it in Jan with 11,800. Just ticked over 20,000.

GF lives about 15 miles away...

I daily mine for 7 months out of the year (Do not drive 5 months during the winter). I average 120 KM / Day for 7 Months.

I have no issues driving her daily, I spend time to take care of the car. I still look forward to the drive every time.

I daily mine summer and winter. Put about 8k a year. Winter tires are a must and with lsd it's not bad in the snow. I wouldn't pick it over my wife's GLK for snow driving but it does just fine driven carefully.

The Bus
It is my only car so it gets driven rain or shine, wherever I need to go - hiking, camping, home depot - that said, I live in the city so I only drive a few times a week and maybe do 8k a year? However, I don't need to contend with snow in Seattle - just rain.

When I move back to snowy New England I'll probably get a 2nd car for the snow even though I know I could get around with a good set of snows on it.

I used to daily my car to work everyday but now I work .5 miles from the office so I walk and drive her on the days when I can go over 10 miles for a drive and enjoy some time stretching her legs.

Maybe its kind of a sad statement, but there are many days when the best part of my day was the time I spent driving. Never ceases to be enjoyable.

Cheer up. My friend with a 2013 c63 coupe with two kid seats in the back seat doesn't drive his in the rain so a lot of days he just sits in it and listens to the exhaust!

WTF did i read that correctly. You drive 3k miles a month? X12 = 36k miles a year?

You should be driving a Prius or taking a damn helicopter.
