I want to save for a house and **want something cheaper that I can DD year around** , I also have a Jeep for the really bad winter days. Bad idea if you are after what’s in bold. For $13k or maybe a bit more, you can get into an Evo VIII with equivalent mileage. The Evo will have a much stiffer chassis, similar weight distribution, similar power to weight, better handling, and is FAR easier to find parts for. Who wants a DD that needs parts from 7000 miles away when something significant (or even small) breaks?!!? Does the GT-R make you feel invincible and make your balls tingle with excitement when entering a decreasing radius turn? Sure, but any well trained old ho’ from Schenectadeck can provide similar thrills in a Mitsubishi. I mean, f#$% an ATTESA, if she know what she’s doing, you don’t even need to be in a turn to erupt. Bottom line: R32 GT-Rs are AWESOME for a 90s car. But without throwing a $hiteload of money at them and having a cousin named Daisuke with connects at the port of Yokohama- you ain’t $hit and YOU WILL lose a drag race to a turbo Celica. They are great ONLY for having something different, but be prepared to PAY THE PRICE. That’s all there is to it. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/r32-skyline-opinions-please/252690)._
