Recently, released another study of cars . It’s still populated largely by SUVs, so what is more fun is examining a list of cars people drive the least. I expected to see Ferraris, Lamborghinis and Aston Martins. I didn’t expect the “some people never drive their Corvettes” stereotype to be so blatantly true.

Here’s the study:

We’ve seen this before —that many owners drive them very little, or not at all. In some cases it has a lot to do with the base’s demographics. Corvettes today are a hell of a lot more powerful than they’ve ever been, not to mention faster and harder to drive. They tend to attract an older buyer who may be intimidated by that performance, or have trouble getting in and out. Many owners treat them purely as weekend cruisers, and that’s probably extra-true of the convertible models. It’s a trend Chevrolet is , a car that very much begs to be driven hard.

Cars are made to be driven. Now, if you are some ultra-rich collector and you’re going to drop a…

Yet among the rare and expensive cars on this list, it sort of sticks out.

But then that brings me to the bigger thesis at hand here. Drive your cars, people. Drive them! Cars at meant to be driven. It doesn’t matter if you have a Murciélago or a Corvette. Drive it and enjoy it, don’t baby the hell out it by locking it up somewhere for most of its life. If you do that, then just sell it to someone who will enjoy it.

Anyway, you can take a look at the , which includes the most-driven cars, most-driven passenger cars, most-driven light-duty pickups and a mileage comparison by body type.

At least these people know what a car is for.

At $950, Would You Go All-In On This 1984 Plymouth Colt GTS Turbo Project?
One of the calling cards of today’s Plymouth Colt is its “Twin Stick” overdrive gear change, which gives the car eight speeds going forward and two in reverse. Let’s see if this project car has anything else to offer. Just as Goldilocks discovered when appropriating Papa Bear’s lifestyle and...

The seller of today’s Caddy claims they should be selling it at auction but says who’s got time for that? Let’s see if we have the time for this custom convertible at its non-auction price. Many of you agreed that the $950 asked for yesterday’s was “chump change.” Even...
