I drive mine to the gym and back everyday. Does that count? Otherwise I have a car provided by my job so I never have to drive it to work.

Wow this has to be an EvoM breakthrough! Guy posts a pic of his attractive wife(tryin hard not to cross any lines, haha) on the first page and in 3 pages of posts(for those of you with 15 posts per page like me) theres only been 1 comment on her...Congratulations men, I guess it CAN be done.

p.s. - yes I do love parentheses

p.p.s. - I drive mine daily as well(stroker, headwork, AEM EMS, 35r comin next week)

I daily drive my Evo IX MR. I use it for the daily commute, groceries, and road trips. Its a little noisy in the interior, and the ride is a little overdamped, but its very fun to drive. I already ditched the factory stereo and tinted the windows. I hope to install some sound deadening soon. A Vishnu tune and a rear swaybar are also planned to improve the fun factor.

I daily drive mine also eeeevery day to and from work and wherever else I need to go. Roughly 13.7 miles one way to work 6 days a week, but who's really counting? Wouldn't trade it for the world

I agree... my plan is to not daily driver the IX, although I know I'll find it hard to lay off the car...

I ask because I currently have a 99 Si, a Jeep and a zx-6r. I am trying adequetly weigh my options... I can't depend on the Jeep to be a daily driver, its old school and I like having it around to go wheeling and hit the snow. So basically I am on the cusp, trade the Si and don't outlay as much cash, or keep that and continue to have cheap gas on my run to work. I owe nothing on it and it runs like a friggin tank... (its probably slower than a tank too, weird... )

I should also add, I travel for work and I am not thrilled about the idea of it sitting in an airport parking lot for 2 weeks at a time.
