Say $5000 a year in depreciation or lease payments, $1500 a year for gas and $500 for insurance (you are a good driver, right?), plus, what, $200 a month for parking at the office. $9400/52~=$180 a week.
But at least you get to sit in traffic.
(Of course, pot, kettle, etc.)

Since I would own and insure the car (at the same rate) regardless of whether I drove it to work, only the parking and gas count in this equation. And the longest my trip takes me is 15 minutes, which is shorter than the Metro ride/walk.
