Mine is my daily. 06 IX, almost at 11k miles. 330whp makes a pretty fun daily.

Mine is a daily driver, but it probably won't see much use during the winter. I've put about 6K miles on it since I bought it in May; what can I say, it's way too fun to drive.

Mine used to be a weekend warrior, but now it is a daily driver, I still only live about 4 miles from my job though.

03 with under 35k miles.

57k here - irs my daily driver.
Decided i would make sure she was a strong one- left it stock until 10k-did a RS-R turbo back, APS BOV (stocker leaking), and works filter-kept it kinda simple and was easy on it ...most of the time!
Then i started gathering up mods (2many to list) and took em all down to AMS about two or three years ago at 30k miles. Next came a some asthetics which i installed. Somehow got the stock clutch to last til abt 46k, then got a little chatter and swapped it out at 48k for a exedy twin

This wednesday i am taking her for a 1200 mile drive-back to Colorado-itll be the first time i have driven her over 1000 miles in one trip!

Luckily i just went to AMS yesterday, had em change my oil, install my hotchkis springs (DAMN its amazing what i was missing with the stock springs!), boost leak test, new spark plugs, etc etc just made sure it was good mechanically and everything for the drive!

Daily driver here too. Wish it wasnt though, I put too much money into it. If I could only put a couple thousand down on a beater instead of parts... BTW, I also know a guy in town running an 03 with around 90-100K and still NO problems with it!
