what's ur daily ride? (and where's my car?)

i ordered my car 3 weeks ago and my car didn't even enter the production yet! (i have the production number though.)

why is it taking so long? are they feeding a cow so that they can fatten it up, skin it, and use it on my seat? but i ordered ALCANTARA!!!!!

just out of curiosity, what is your daily ride?

me got 2010 jetta (2.0T + DSG)

I split my daily rides between either my Z4 or the R1150RT, depending on weather conditions.

3 weeks and you are complaining? I ordered a Ford Raptor on 1/8/11 and just got it last week. 13 weeks and it didn't have a boat ride. Our Z is a DD.

Three days every week my commute consists of me going downstairs to my home office. The other two I use my Zed as my DD.

Zed's our toy. It gets used mostly on weekends. During the week I primarily drive my 540i 6spd. Its a great DD. Similar power to my Zed and it gets 20mpg mixed driving.

Am I the only one who has an old school for DD?
My DD is an E30 1991 318is
Complete polar opposite of the 35is Z4 in almost every way, but I love them both.

When the weather's good it's mostly the 2010 Ducati Multistrada 1200S.

The 2011 Bugatti Veyron EB 16.4 is our daily mule. The 35i gets all the pampering and we drive her only on special sunny occasions or on picturesque desert mountain runs.

These days, the DD is a Boeing 767-400.

Every few days I get to use the 35is to get from the airport to home and back again...

By daily driver are we referring to what we drive to work? Well I don't drive, I am driven... Metro city bus. Other than that we do have a Corolla that is the workhorse and it certainly gets better gas mileage than the Zed. Gas is going to be a killer this summer.
