The longest I've ever gone without driving mine was a month. It was like heaven when I got back into the driver's seat.

Two days for me. It's been nice weather here, so the convertible is in the garage and the ZHP is in the storage unit.

The first time was a month after I got the car. I had it at the dealer for DME programing for the 4k RPM power drop issue and they hosed my DME. It took a month to get a new one from BMWNA but I had a brand new jet black 335Xi as a loaner so I didn't mind.

The last time was this winter. With all of the snow, I parked it for 2 months while I drove my 2001 Tarurs backup car. Drove me nuts... I could hardly stand walking by the Bimmer in the garage every day

Over 2 weeks since I tore apart the rear end to replace the subframe bushings. Hopefully back together tonight

Its almost been about a week. Getting the itch to drive it. The only driving I've done is in my brother's Dodge pickup. I like the straight six Cummins. 500+ lbs-ft of torque is an awesome thing.

About 5 minutes ago :p

Seriously though, the winter months do get annoying from the end of November to early April when the ZHP is away.

At least my VW is decently fun(I don't want it to hear me hehe, the other day I said how different it was to get back into that from the ZHP, and the next day the battery was dead for good :facepalm. VWs are fun, but moody)

About 20 hours. Really been enjoying my car during past 30 days. Put about 800 miles on it. Won't drive it again until Saturday morning.

I am going to vacuum the stuff out of the area between the windshield and the hood before I can even wash it....that's how long its been for me. Next time I drive it I will keep a pic update from time to time.

I know what you are talking about lol....i didn't drive mine for a month while it was in the body shop...it was the best feeling in the world when i got back behind the wheel and took her home

Yup, when I'm away for even a few days one of the first things I like to do when I get back is drive my car. Especially after having driven rentals.

I have not driven the ZHP since June 4. Unless I just jump in it and take it for a spin, it looks as though I will not drive it again on July 6 -- and then again on July 9 and July 10.

Haven't been driven since yesterday...
Normally it's only driven every two or three weeks. I try not to rack the miles up on it. That's what my E32 is for (278,000 miles)!!!!!!

The e46? This past Sunday, June 26, when I warmed up the oil for a change out.

The e30? Thursday, June 9, just before we left for the ZHPMafia Family Reunion. I should start using the e30 as my daily again.

I haven't driven it since 2 days ago. Been rocking my Jetta TDI! It's been getting worked on since I have such a busy work week, getting all sorts of maintenance stuff done to it. Should be back in the driver's seat in a few hours!

6 days. Way too long. As my wife and I were headed to the airport last Friday at 5am I said "we're taking my car." knowing that the road to the airport is a twisty little two-laner. Her reaction: "I knew you'd say that."

Sadly, I won't see my ZHP for 6 more days. Long trip.

took a vacation last week to tahoe/grass valley, ca. saw phish in tahoe, drove around the lake into cali and went to the nevada county fair, hung out a day at the yuba river, went walking and shopping through nevada city, very fun trip. that's all good and well except i was driving a buick lacrosse boat through some of the gnarliest twisties i've ever experienced. drove my zhp for the first time in 6 days this morning...damn it felt good!

I didn't drive my e46 for 10 days. Go to start it up and it was idling rough, back firing, farting, and had white exhaust. Drove it down the road and it all cleared up.
