If you're smart and financally well off, WHY NOT IMPORT A 1989 GTR??


The first bit told the story...they are still too expensive, and I'm slowly going broke with my Datto project. One thing at a time. I think it's unwise for any man to have more than 1 crazy hobby at a time.

'89 GTR -> $28,000-$40,000
+ $3000/yr insurance
+ a lot of worry if I want to park it anywhere. That's why I have the Pulsar, only desperados want to steal one of those slugs.

I worry about parking my Dattos anywhere..
Maybe I've lived in Sydney too long. I need a big farm shed in the middle of a 20 acre block.

This is what I want eventually..A big country block with plenty of rally space or a private sealed racetrack. I could put a deposit down on a farm in some areas for the cost of a GTR

Chris.

...ahhh dreams are nice.

I hate that I have to work 50 hours a week to afford this crazy Datto habit, that my tightarsed government doesn't give me any mental health support for.. Those lamer Movie stars with their damn "Betty Ford" clinics and pickles on Maccas burgers just drives me nuts.

Smoking tires is not a health hazard..

Michael, 22

ashamed to say it was a 6cyl cortina at first, but never looked back from my first datto 1200 at $500, imagine selling a 6cyl cortina for an automatic 1200, definately a change of pace, but i love my 2 dattos now, and they move quicker than the cordy did
