E90 325i/328i - may not be too reliable if you don't take care of it, but inexpensive, fun and relatively small. Or get a gti.

I guess it depends on how you define daily driver. I work from home so I don't really have a set daily drive. That being said I have a 2014 C7 which gets driven the least and a 2017 F350 which is basically just for towing the RV.

Before when I had an F150 I guess that would have been what I considered the daily driver, but the F350 is kind of a pita to drive in town. So I just picked up a 2020 corolla which I guess would be the new daily driver.

me personally I would rather have a more expensive weekend toy and drive a shitbox to work everyday, than have 1 in between car to use 24/7.
