Re: daily driving fun cars

While I drive my fun car most of the time when it's not in storage, I also only have a 2 mile commute so it's not a chore to drive to work. I would consider the fun car my DD for 2/3 of the year, and the escort my DD in winter. Works for me, I was never really worried about the CTS-V, Corvette, and now the Lotus for reliability, but they are much newer cars than my DSM.

I agree with Murlo on the vette not being a year round vehicle. I had blizzaks on the Cadillac and that thing sucked to drive if there was snow on the road, I imagine the Vette would be worse. I stored the Cadillac the next winter and sold the snow tires.
