Good DD?
Whats a good DD? I am looking for an alternative to an STI for daily driving, or for whatever. Convertibles are super appealing...perhaps a miata or even dare I say an s2000? Convertible mini maybe...and then there are the normal POS's which I could always go with - an old honda civic or something. Someone give me some ideas, I am kicking the idea around. Good mileage is a must though...hell even the s2000's do up to 30! Dayum!
s2000s dont really give u the gas mileage u might be looking for in a DD. maybe if ur doing all freeway, u'll hit that 30mpg mark, if not u will 100% not see anything more than 24 mpg at best.

sti is sweet dd. My 06 (use to have 05 that i put 48k on) isnt dd anymore and while i love keeping miles off it I definitely miss it. I love my cheapo 97l for commuting my 100miles a day. I say buy a cheapo for commute and a nice ride for weekends.............while personally id keep the sti m3 vert may be cool, if you are loaded enough a zm convertible

RX-8 
Not only does the RX8 have a better ride than the S2000, it's also got rear seats and something that resembles a truck.
Did I mention it's less expensive too?
