Hardway Posted January 4, 2017 Share #49 Posted January 4, 2017 I bet I don't put 500 miles a year on my 240z. I primarily take it out to Cars and Coffee and other local shows and then drive it back home. I never daily drive it because I don't want to roll in to work smelling like gas and oil, only if ever so slightly. I have a Scion FR-S that has been my daily driver for the past 3 years but it's lease is up next month and I will be in a 1999 Camry V6 XLE. Nothing exciting for sure but comfy, looks decent, reliable on all fronts, and more importantly it is paid for! 2 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/38974-how-often-do-you-drive-your-vintage-z/?page=5#findComment-509632 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only problem I have is that it's a 46 year old car ( and it's getting pretty rare, more each year ) and driving in today's dense and much faster traffic, makes me a bit sweaty in the hands and nervous sometimes, constantly looking ahead on what other drivers are doing..., because there are alot of reckless drivers on the road these days. I have to say that when I take it out for a cruise, i'd rather drive the country roads or at least stay away from dense traffic/cities. 1 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/38974-how-often-do-you-drive-your-vintage-z/?page=5#findComment-509686 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Project 3/72, (see photo album) although it may not be a daily driver it will get plenty of miles. I strongly agree that these cars, or any car for that matter need to be driven. I never beat on any car I've owed so no need to start now. I can't wait for the long SoCal trip. After the expense and time involved I just can't see letting it sit.

Travel'n Man Posted May 29, 2017 Share #54 Posted May 29, 2017 Drive mine almost every evening in the summer. The mountain roads in Western NC are perfect. The only problem is I have no engine sine January. Hoping Dave Rebello will ship this coming week. Engine is dyno' and finished. Just waiting on a engine shipping crate to get to Dave for shippingSent from my iPhone using Classic Zcar Club mobile Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/38974-how-often-do-you-drive-your-vintage-z/?page=5#findComment-521904 Share on other sites More sharing options...
