My brother is progressively making his car better. He's getting some new mags for it sometime down the track as well as a respray and some new window rubbers.

That's a lot of money to spend on an R32 Skyline. Is it a GTS-T? I probably spent $4-5k on my first SV6, regretted it later on because I didn't have it to spend on my next car. Could have had a Senator instead of a Calais, etc.

GTST M-spec. It has the 2.0 litre RB20DET in it. Plenty of grunt. Believe it or not, it does get quite a bit of attention.

RB20s are good engines to practice doing things with and I'm lead to believe are very easy to extract extra power from. I've (helped) put one back together before, but that was out of an R31.

I don't drive, but so far, my driver (YES, I AM IN BANGLADESH WITH FRICK'S SAKE) drives it all for a Nissan Bluebird 2009, soon getting a Kia Sportage 2011... If I had to have a car, for fun; definitely, some convertible.

My brother is learning to drive in this car. It's actually better to drive than the Lancer he had previously, which was eleven years younger than this car.

Not surprising, Lancers are the car equivalent of whitegoods.

They are a bit shit. The first one we test drove began to overheat and it had looked like that it had been involved in an accident and not repaired properly.

I don't own a car so the only reason I read this thread is to confirm this:

I waited until the fourth page this time...
"...I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can't agree with your methods of direct action;" who paternalistically feels he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by the myth of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait until a "more convenient season." -MLK Jr.

Meh. Front wheel drive and midsize, no thanks. I'd get a Fleetwood if I wanted a Caddy of that era.
