Exotic Daily Drivers

[Marty Funkhouser]

Yesterday I saw a Ferrari 456 in a car park covered in grime and grit (it was in an underground car park and I couldnt get any photos). The wheels had been kerbed a couple of times and it was clear it was being used as a daily driver.

Whats the most exotic daily driver you've seen?

A local insurance broker drives to work every day in one of these - Aston Martin Vantage. It's a bit "used-looking", not exactly concours, and I think that fact makes him a top bloke.

Last year I worked in an investment bank in the city of London. Pretty much every exotic you could imagine was parked in the car park, and used daily!

Imo that is showing off, not cool. No chance to hoon on the way into the city.
A classic car would be far more appropriate, waft to work in style - like the post above.

Also, nowadays those exotic cars are designed to accommodate golf clubs and be docile in traffic, which makes them uncool, not like commuting in a supercar back when they were thinly-disguised racing cars.

The modern equivalent would be to commute in something like an Ariel Atom or BAC Mono, or if you're a little more sane a Porsche 911 GT3 or Lotus Exige S.

About 5-6 years ago I used to pass a bloke in an 80's 911 everyday. Does that count?
Stand up, Mr White 911-owner who used to regularly drive in the Denby Dale area, and be counted!
