Heh, congrats! I've only owned mine for about a month now (r32 gts-t) and I've dropped back to being a student this year! I have no idea how I'm going to afford the habbit! But I love it nonetheless!

The 125kw @ the wheels she's got atm just isn't enough! More I say! :D

HE HE HE --- ahh...sweet memories...i still remember the first time i saw my line and took her for a test drive the 1st time and not having to sleep properly for 3 weeks thinking of the day that i will come back for her to pick her up...i even dreamt about her in my sleep...it was that bad.

i still get butterflies when i cruize in it...i love my line...the best ever. ( so far )

i'd say...start saving up...i made a promise then that i will leave the line as it was then...but i have broken that promise and i did some engine mods.. HE HE...very expensive i must say.

but best of all...ENJOY mate...and welcome to your new addiction.

I've had my SII for about 10 days now and I FULLY understand your feelings towards the car Brave!!! :P I go on all sorts of pointless driving trips, and it's the first car I've ever owned that when I get home again I feel like I'm not ready to stop driving LOL

Ahhhh boy do I know how you feel... has been... 8 and a bit days since I got mine. My fuel bill is disgraceful, anyone who even looks at my car, I offer them a ride :P I could just drive and drive and... drive. I'm hooked as can be :( If I didn't need my job to pay off the car & fuel it up, I'd quit and just cruise all day.

LOL me too, my fuel bill was $110 in the first week lol...it's now $140 after 10 days

Had my car for 5+ years, I got it back on the road after a 3year stint with public transport (The courts insisted :P ) and I'd forgotten how much I used in fuel every week :)

Got to experience that same Buzz a second time, it felt so good to get back in the drivers seat and feel the steering wheel again :)

I congratulate you on the return to your skyline! Enjoy the buzz once more. i couldnt handle having my skyline in the garage and not being able to drive it for three years, i think i would end up in therapy of some sort!! :( Hasnt fuel gone up in three years!!! :)

    • I found the same with Subaru’s.  I own and love the SG9 Forester, after that model 2008+, Subaru threw the ugly stick at all their line up and somehow managed to make them look worse with every succeeding year.  lol
    • It's something we all have to consider as time marches on. Also consider lifted rally MX5 conversion at that point.
    • I should be fine for a few more years, whilst I do have arthritis I also exercise and do mobility training every day to keep as fit and healthy as I can, military life, which is the actual cause of most of my joint issues, has set daily regimes, which I weirdly enjoy I also train alot smarter now, not really focusing on lots strength or puffy muscles, I'm more focused on maintaining what I have for my future older self, I actually train as much mobility now as I do exercising Check out this "simple" drill I have been doing daily prior to training now for a while now, this has worked wonders in my all round mobility   
    • I'd say one thing that may make you sell is the same reason the guy with the hard top roof sold his. He got old, and his back was giving him too much grief stopping him getting in and out... Old guy said he was 73! He looked and sounded younger than 73 to me! Or maybe I'm just aligning with old people more...
    • Already looked at a few prior to getting the MX5, really nice car, had all the mod cons, but I wasn't really sold on the new "look" I did miss my 2017 Limited, and I personally prefer the "look" of the older car over the new model, but, when pondering I kept going back looking at MX5's But it was same same for the new ND's, I wasn't sold on the new "look", especially the RF with its weird roof, which only half goes down, like a targa top sort of thing As I stated before, I did look at NC's, but the cars I looked at were PRHT's, but I didn't like their roof line "look" of the PRHT, until I saw the soft top version, (someone on SAU posted a for sale ad for one with a soft top that caught my attention, you can blame them for my choice.....🤣) and.... that old style detachable hard tops were available for them, which keeps the old MX5 more smoother flowing roof line, and the more rounded body style, similar to the NA-NB, to me, the arse end of the ND looks to "modern" Much like how I prefer the NC1 front bar, over the later models How long will I keep this car for is unknown, but currently, there's nothing else out there that "floats my boat" for a small, fun, little "sports car", that I can play with and enjoy looking at and driving But, who knows what the future holds, and going off current new car styling, if I replace it, it will be a older model something something
