    Bus pride good one!
    It's not the price that's expensive, it's the hassle. If we take this from an opportunity cost stand point, driving a new M3 would look cheap compared to taking the bus from uni to my house in winter It's the time that it takes that's stupid.

        Yea students at the U of M can buy parking passes to park. We got quite a bit of parking, although the parking pass I got is for a FAR away lot, which is like 10 min of walking to my 1st class...atleast it's all underground tunnels

                By the way, for those who were thinking of running you skyline during winter, remember that these engine were never built or tested in low temperature like those days ... I heard stories about sr refusing to start in temperature around 0 celcius.

                  Thats my point exactly. I also know that even though its as easy as ever to bring one here, there are still hurdles. Once they see that mint car thats never seen temps below 10 degrees or road salt, it'll take a real masochist to drive it through one of our winters. Its -40 outside, wanna take the GTR?!

                      Cold is a very relative word, depending from where in the world you come from. While I was in Mexico, I actually thought that anything under 20 celcius was cold ...

                      See there is: cold, freezing cold, d*mn cold, f*cking cold and Canada like cold

                        The car I'd buy would never come from Hokkaido. :P

                          Who was the goof that posted that picture of the crashed/demolished R34?

                          I almost puked. ops:

                          That image is like seeing images from a war of children... really hurts deep inside and makes me wish that both wars and demolished cars never existed.

                          Cheers,

                            No doubt. Tons of salt on the roads. Almost as bad as Ontario
