Most of us in Ont that don't have daddys with serious pull and in our late 20-30s just insure it as a hobby car with Silverwheels.
This limits the use of the car but as a toy/track car it's work the 150 a year. If I can find daily insurance on the 200s/mth like my daily I'll switch it out in a heartbeat.
Well... I might not have a Daddy with serious pull, but I do have a wife that lets me enjoy my passion for cars fairly nag free.

^^ I remember when it went for sale about a year or two ago. Was a good looking sedan imo for a daily. Ouch with the snow but for the price point better than most things you can get. Congrats on the insurance too.
Thanks man. Just dropped the safety off at the brokers today... Waiting for appraisal to come back and then I'll be off the temp ins policy. Facility ain't cheap... But no more expensive than taking up smoking. So worth it imo.
Also since Facility is high risk already, they can't deny a claim for undeclared modifications, evven extreme ones. (it's case law on the books).
And trust me it happens. My previous vehicle was a fully track built JDM K20 Type-R swapped Civic insured legally through Facility. I went this route, cause insurance companies have denied claims including additional medical benefits, for cars with serious undeclared modifications. I`ve seen even a theft claim denind in Ontario on one forum for only basics undeclared mods... wtf.
But I love the Skyline so much more... Not quite as fast or hardcore as my civic. But meh... The Skyline is just so civilised... Quiet cabin, no crazy vibration from motor mounts, wider powerband. <--- This becomes important in your mid 30's. The cherry is the Skyline drops jaws consistently, on top of 3 to 5 thumbs up a day, ect... $5k car that gets more props than a Ferrari.
Bumper needs a re-spray the only thing it really needs. Probably get a GTR front bumper for summer.
This car is sooo mint to, the underbody is still body-colour and shiney.... Love the GTR/Impul exhaust. I pinch myself evertime I drive it
Anyway I can't wait to come out to some meets and ask lots of questions and learn from all the Skyline veterans. lol
