Is there better ways to go? Sure there is but you don't own an old car like this for comfort or economical reasons. It's the feeling you get being behind the wheel, that smile on your face that you can't help when you turn the key, those moments you find yourself looking at it in amazement. If you can have that everyday, why not go for it?
In saying that I have a work ute as my daily, the R32 Skyline is the weekend car or when I am on holidays becomes my daily (love it) and when the zed is finished it will replace the R32.
