Daily Drive my 996 C4S?
I've had my 996 for maybe 4 years now? The exterior is in pretty amazing condition as is the interior. It's got 101k miles on it now. I've put about 10 of those on it mostly on long weekend trips and occasional use around town. I've stayed ahead of maintenance items mostly. It had a clutch and IMS done at 70k. It does need shock mounts but I'm going to put that off as long as possible and do all 4 corners with new struts, etc. at some point.
I'm transitioning into a part time partial retirement job in a few weeks. I'll sell my DD Subaru. I have a 4*4 truck for nasty winter stuff. My "commute" to work is very short. Barely enough to get the thing warmed up.
I'm kind of stuck between using the 911 more or selling it and buying a used Cayenne or something. It's in such nice shape but I know the thing isn't worth more than $30k with 997 prices coming down so why not? One of the big things with driving it more is everyone else is in trucks and SUV's and the feeling of not being seen or not being able to see around other vehicles.
Anyone else drive their more modern 911 every day?
