Default Daily, Decisions (Daily Drivers)....

Most of you know I am only 17, but for those of you who do not, bare with me. I was posed with a question by my mother.

I am heading off to college in the Fall to pursue my BSME and possibly my MSME. I still do not have a drivable car, So she gave me the choice, get my Chevelle up and running, and use it as a daily driver, or buy a daily driver and slowly work on the chevelle (less funding for the 'Velle due to DD purchase).

I am thinking, put all the funds into the Chevelle, and use it as a daily driver. I do not mind as far as wear/tear goes, because I am planning several track days, as well as a bunch of us are planning a spring break, ('08 of course) Cross-Country trek.

These are the Pro's/Con's I can think of;

Chevelle
Pros Cool ass DD, Enjoyment of driving, More reliable
Cons Possible Higher Theft rate, accidents

Daily Driver
Pros Low-Key, Safer
Cons Boring, accidents, less reliable

Feel free to add on to the Pros/Cons.

So, with all that being said, what are your opinions? One day I think, yea just get some type of DD, then slowly work on the 'Velle, then the next day I think, "Damn, How cool would it be to drive the 'Velle 2 years earlier then I expected?"

Thank you for any input

-Todd
