The shop I work for, I would usually need to park outside so any "special" car gets dusty and sun beaten all day long just for me to battle traffic on the way home.

...not really rewarding.

So, I have no problem having a comfy daily driver and saving the "special" cars ready to go in the garage for times they can be enjoyed to the fullest.

If I lived in california or some area that my drive to work was low traffic, awesome roads and a carport or garage when I arrived, would probably have only one or two cars.
Good points. Also, at 6'3" I don't want to climb in/out of my low sitting 335i all day, every day. My knees are bad enough as is :-)

I was fortunate to have onsite garage parking at my last employer, which made driving her to work easier to do, and my commute was only 10 minutes.
