People really use it as a daily driver

Now is a supercharger like a turbo. Will it ever need to be replaced?

Yes, At Some Point It Would Have To Be Replace Are Repaired. Some People Do Use It As A Daily Driver. I Bet The 1 You Have Listed Was A Daily Driver.:d
Wow, over 96k miles. A true testament to the endurance of these cars. If maintained correctly, it should go another 100k min...supercharger and all.

Wow, that's very clean with all those miles on it. The wheels are cleaner than mine! Mine is also a daily driver, but with under 20k miles on her.
Mine has been driven daily since last Oct....38K on the clock. Got it with 24K.....so 14K in 1yr of owning. Would say 80% are highway miles.. I drive atleast 40miles out of 53mile daily commute on hwy.
My N/A was a DD, about 11k miles in a year before she was totaled. My SRT6 is also a DD, but unortunately I've put a good bit more miles on here in the time frame. I've put on about 7k miles since April
, but that also included driving it from Chicago to NJ during the move... so yeah.
I love it, I wouldn't have it any other way. It just wouldn't be as fun if it wasn't my DD.

Mine is a daily driver as well (just broke 15k). The only prerequisite to making it work is have a second set of winter wheels/tires to take you through the winter months. Oh and remember there is a "W" mode when it's slippery.

1) I don't have a garage
2) I don't have the finances right now to own 3 cars like I did for the past few years.
The only way I was able to keep my SRT6 while my wife and I save to build a new house is to use it as my daily. It's not bad- heated seats and side mirrors aren't there for nothing. Just have to watch the torquey motor when the weather is inclement. That's one thing my old STi will always have over the SRT6.
PS Part of the fun of driving a low 12 second car is that I get to drive it EVERY DAY!
Mine's a DD as well. It's not as comfortable as most DD's but it probably wouldn't be as fun to drive. Something has to make me smile when I'm about to work a 8-10hr day

wow thats a lot of miles. id say thats more of a daily delivery driver. i was thinking about making mine a daily driver...... but since parts are expensive and i have no extended waranty i only plan to put about 6-7 k a year.(i drive about 15k.... so i'll be using its friday-sunday. look on the bright side.... i'll appreciate the hell outta it when i get behind the wheel
My buddy has a new Genesis sedan and we took a road trip to North Georgia (good 9 hour trip), my god is that a comfy ride. If I needed a 4dr Sedan I would definitely consider that car first
Mine is a Daily Driver and I wouldn't have it any other way. Well that is until my RX7 is finished. Then it will be another EDD(Every other Day Driver).

Although I am sure at the time you did not want to have to move them LOL
When I was in the Marine Corps, we had a saying for those who smoked cigarettes. It went something like this:"If you got em, smoke em". The same should go for our cars. "If you got em, drive em or in our case, smoke everybody
"
I think a lot of people get hung up on the miles. I know plenty of Mercedes that have 200K miles and run like they did at 20k miles.
