man some of you guys got some nice "beaters".

I pretty much daily drive the FD and have been for years and years. The only exceptions are during the winter and for jobs that the 7 can't handle such as the one seen in this pic...

and the diva

My beater will remain my beater until it dies. It's at 212k now. That could be days or years.




And when the Maxima dies I'll be driving this while I shop for new DD (08 F-250 Supercab with 6.4):




I still haven't decided if I want my next dd to be a small economical little car for scooting back and forth to work or something fun. The Maxima isn't exactly either of them.

thank you. and it only stays on there for winter too. you can only crack the sunroof with it on there so it comes off when the weather is nice unless i'm doing some spring boarding.

Why you holding out on us Mahjik, why not post pics of the Audi too, I would have a E46 as my DD but due to the snow it would be worthless to have it so bought a 2008 STI.

Well, the Audi is the wife's DD, not mine.

I do drive the M3 in the snow with snow tires. However, I have to say that it's getting a little tiresome willing it through the snow year after year. I just can't find an AWD car that I like which doesn't cost over $80k or isn't an Audi. Not that I don't like Audi's, I just don't like have two similar cars in the same garage.
