I'm curious to see how many people drive them as a daily and what kind of miles you have/intend to put on them.

Mine's an 06 C2S that I bought a year ago with 21k on it. It now has 33500 miles.

I bought a 2006 C2S yesterday that has only 9000 miles (so likely someone's weekend toy). For me it'll be my 'fun' car yet I'll still end up putting close to 10,000 miles/year on it.

Mines a daily driver. Not sure about winter though. My M3 was an all seasons car. The cayman was summer only (and it was painful not using it Nov to April).

Thinking of snows and driving it on the decnt winter days at least.

2009 C2, purchased new with 9 miles on it in Jan 09. Just past 8000 miles as of this month. I have a 125 mile daily commute and two other vehicles. I drive the Carrera on weekends and every third week to work. On the off weeks, it's my wifes toy for local errands



Per Dave's request, i don't plan on trading the Carrera in at any set mileage. It's not uncommon for me to keep cars for several years and put 120K+ on them. What normally drives me to trade is large numbers of parts failures in a year. Then I weigh the value added to the car with the repairs vs what a new one would cost.

I'm hoping that this Carrera lives up to Porsche's recent high quality reputation and will keep it for a long time, even if I have to replace the engine or transmission at some point. Depreciation to me is not a factor, since I bought it to drive, not as an investment. Might as well get my moneys worth out of it!

my 08C2S was 6 months old and had 3500 miles when I purchased it. It just past the 10000 mile. It is a DD. I still get a thrill and uplift when I slide into the seat and start the engine. Only downside - a speeding ticket - my fault - not the car's fault.

Mine was a CPO. It's a 2006 C2S and when I took delivery in Feb. 2008 it had 6038 miles on it.
Today it has 16K miles on it.

35K miles. Bought it almost 3 years ago with 22K miles so about 5K per year since. It's a DD splitting time with my Prius. Loved it since day1. More so since I mod'ed it to taste (oh, the Prius is pretty cool too).
