I've had my second GTR for about 4 years now, and it's old. But I recently bought a daily in the form of a 2012 BMW, and not a garden variety model, but a rip snorting drivers car.

So when I was out with wifey a little while back on the backroads around Toolangi having a bit of a giggle in the new car, she says to me out of the Blue, " I know why you like this car so much, it's because it feels like your GTR!"

At that moment I thought how silly she is, this is brand new, current tech, completely different, but I thought about it a little, and she was right, it really does feel like my GTR. So my 2012 cutting edge driver's thingy feels like my old 1997 Nissan with 165K on the clock that surely has been thrashed regularly, I didn't know whether to cry or rejoice. Then I though, gee that old GTR is very good. Not only for it's age, but for just what it does and how it does it even by today's standards.

So recently I mentioned that I'm thinking of selling the new car, as much as I love it, for something more practical, just can't seem to fit much in it but me, or even a large eski. Wife said " why don't you keep that and sell the GTR" my response was "you've clearly gone insane, I'm never getting rid of this Skyline!!!"

So there you go, two signs that now I know I truly love this Skyline.

Cars are like females the older they get the higher the maintenance cost to keep em looking good

It explains the reason guys trade in the females and not the car, old cars are worth lots more haha

And its hard to find a low km female of age without a boot full of baggage and worn out carpet

(New BWM wow not after reading the horrors of repeated mechanical failures on one Last week )

950 for alternator geezus

250,000 dollar car now worth 15k crazy
