I have thought about trading or selling my car in the spring for a GT-2. My office and pretty much anything I do during the week are 5 miles or less away. My TT is my daily driver and I have a truck for long trips.

My question is can the GT-2 be used as a daily driver like my TT? Thanks!

(feel free to post a pic)

DO IT, It should be a little stiffer than the TT, but not that big of a deal.

Hell yes, the GT2 can be a great daily driver. I just drove the GT3 to the office today, and that is a bit stiffer than the 2.

The GT2 would make a fine daily driver for a short commute especially if you are currently driving a TT. The only issue I ever have is with the ground clearance in the front otherwise it is a pleasure all of the time.

Also, you will need to pay attention and be cautious on wet roads as it does not have any traction control.

i found GT2 is easier to drive than TT except there's no PSM so u have to pay more attention when u drive - that's what u should do anyways.

reason i say easier is because i like the GT2 clutch better the TT although it's heavier but much easier to control imo.

it can be a perfect daily drive & more fun!

If you don't deal with traffic I would not hesitate to drive one daily. I take mine about 1 time per week. And yes if possible I take the long way home!

Ride is stiff versus the Turbo (if stock) but still acceptable. Good luck on your decision.

My stage 4 was a daily driver until my Club Coupe. Now I alternate between the two. The truth be told, I like it better then the new car. Power is a drug!

Beautiful car loliver. Thank you all for the info! I am more excited now that you all have said the car can be driven daily. I just can't let cars sit around. I buy them to drive them.

That's hot Fabryce. Ever take the race car out on a city street and cause some trouble?
