1 And A Half Months Of Skyline Ownage

[SKYL1N]

actually the title is a lie i have had my skyline for longer, but i only got my license on the 27th of august and ever since then i have been driving my pride and joy

at first i loved it

then i started hating it when i was randomly getting pulled up by cops and the petrol bill started really hitting me

but then there are some occasions where i drive past a shop window and just catch a glimps of the reflection

today i was parked next to a audi 4wd

and the reflection made me smile

owning a skyline may have a downfalls

but then i get to think for myself

im driving in one of the best looking cars ever

and every time i hit the gas and listen to that exhaust purr... i am content

Good to hear

Just remember, the amount of petrol usage is directly related to your right foot, even with N/A's

[ashneel]

do a turbo conversion and you would be even more happier and over the moon

also got a similiar pic off the shiney truck on the way home tonight but didnt have my camera (not even my 5MB phone) with me and we were rolling on the freeway at the time, although very slow still ended up with a crappy pic...

the moment promised so much but delivered so little

[Rekin]

haha i love stopping next to trucks with big wheels, can always see my car in the big bubble reflection at the centre of their wheel

[AGE]

Even though i own a WRX, i do know the feeling.

Those reflective glass buildings are good for something

is your fuel bill really bad? i thought mine was pretty good with my r34 and its non turbo. when i filled it up i was scared i thought it was going to cost me a fortune but it only cost me 57 bucks and thats with v-power anyway i suppose its how u drive it and where your driving as well. also just a quick question dose your exhaust rattle in a certain rev range ive herd that alot of n/a skylines do, then i herd it's only the twin cams that make the noise mine does it in between 2 and 3000rpm.

[Mavric]

totally agree man...

every time i drive past the front of a shop window i have to turn and look at my car driving past.....

[sammus]

when i read the title i thought it meant that the 1.5month was good but now it's over and awaited a write off pic hahaha. maybe i'm just a pessimist.

[ak_stylez]

lol my mates make fun of me for lookin at the reflection from shop windows. guess it must be a skyline thing

[funkymonkey]

i always check the reflection to make sure I'm not missing any of the parts of my car....

but that's just me.

[Sklyn]

Well we buy these cars cos we love em so much so of course we wanna look at them all the time. Never know when you'll see a new angle. I sometimes just stand outside and look at for a while.....lol..

I have only had a couple mths too..

[Helio]

I totally agree with all above. A year on and I don't think that I will ever get sick of it. Can't wait till I get my front bar re-sprayed, will be even happier then.

yeah my tank is about $65 bucks v power

and it lasts me about 375-400kms

its gradually going up as i stop thrashing the car around.

and no the exhaust doesnt rattle. however my whole boot lid and rear view does due to subs

[Modena]

Im guilty of checking my car out in the feflection.

Even if its dirty, silver still looks clean
