Unfortunately, it seems the only way to ever drive an exotic car is to own it
yourself.  While I'm fairly free with letting others drive my present cars,
I'm not so sure the same would be true if I had any that were truly valuable,
in the financial sense.  Certainly, this has been my experience with others.

While sorting through some magazines this morning, I found a brief note in the
January 1998 issue of Sport Compact Car about a company that has plans to
import R33 Skyline GT-Rs and possibly R34 versions in the future ... estimated
price?  $78,000.  It also noted that they might be able to import a few 400Rs
as well but I'm assuming the price of those will be far beyond even the
dreaming stage for me...
  
> I extend to you my heartfelt sympathy.

Paula, my girlfriend, needs the sympathy.  All last night and this morning,
I've been digging through every car magazine I've got to find out info about
Skylines and spent a few hours trolling on the 'net instead of sleeping  ...
and to think I've still got a lot of tax returns left to prepare.
