Multiple drivers report successful daily driving experiences, particularly with the Stage 3+ variant, noting happy left legs and solid reliability under demanding conditions. However, there's an important caveat: the puck-style design of the standard Stage 3 can be problematic for pure daily driving scenarios, with owners warning it doesn't tolerate slipping or riding the clutch.
