How many miles per year do you drive your 928?
How many miles per year do you drive your 928?
I remember in the 1980s, my Dad daily drove his. Took to work, we took on weekend runs, and even used the car in all 4 seasons, including snow. It was a wonderful car. My 928, I sparingly use, but it's mostly due to being so busy and not enough time to spend driving the fun cars
How much/often do you use your 928, and what's its primary duty?

It isn't my daily driver as I do quite a bit of driving. The 928 isn't the most economical to use. I drove my '84 about 5k miles this year only because I hadn't driven one to amount to anything since 2012. My current '84 hadn't been on the road since 2010. I foresee 3-5k in '17.

About 2K (Blumaxx) and who knows with my 85 - it will be more and Blumaxx will be less.

Mine did DD duty for a while, weekends-plus duty for a while. Averaged about 4k miles/yr. The last few years have been less, around 2500/yr., now that winter is a non-driving season. Need to do more touring, that's for sure.

I bought this one in 2009 and have put on 20,000 miles. If I divide that buy how much cash I've dumped into it (not including purchase price, gas, insurance, etc.) I'm at $1.25 a mile. Kind of crazy when I think about it.

I've owned mine for 8 years but have only put 23k miles on it due to an excess of down time. I try to drive it whenever I can as I have no intentions on leaving it for the next guy. Sorry kids

I'm planning on moving mine into a 'nearly daily' status, once the winter tasks are done. The problem is that I love my Cayenne and I'm shopping for a Boxster, so even with a daily goal in mind, there's fierce competition in my garage.

I'm up to almost 8-9k Km's per year, but not daily driven. Just weekends and many trips throughout the year.

Didn't drive mine at all since November of 2015. Tranny is trashed. I haven't been able to install the replacement I bought yet, but should have it done over the holidays.
I do put around 4K on it normally per year. It gets driven more than my other collector cars, cause it's more practical. My wife prefers the 928, and our Aero Coupe over the others.

3000- up to may be 5000 at the most. To the airport, picking up kids, running a few errands. Thats it. When it gets painted it will be way less!
