Like i stole it sometimes , but mostly just cruising. I spend at least an hour hand-washing it. The inside is always clean, I get really pissed if i see one piece of trash on the passenger side.

If I treated my SC like anymore of a toy than I do, the steering wheel would get replaced with a servo, along with a couple more for gas and brakes. Add a 2.4Ghz rx/tx and I would have a 3500lbs r/c car...

Considering this eighteen year old car is my daily driver and costs as much as any common rolling restoration classic to set right, I'd say I treat it too well. Financially anyway.

But it's a joy to drive. In the driver's seat I take it around rather spiritedly, the way it was designed to be driven. Not stupidly, or recklessly, just spirited driving in general.

I am very bad with this. I never take it out when its raining i wash it at least 2 times a week. My car has never seen snow under my ownership. Now that being said... I race it every chance i get and love it. As many of you may know i was recently in an accident... stupid b@#ch. Anyways after that it has been under a cover in my garage I can drive it but will not because i dont want people to see it like that. I know im weird lol. Cant wait till it gets fixed

Very succinctly put, Kahn.

I love the fact that my car still turns heads almost years after she rolled off the line in Japan. With so many of the cars today looking like each other, it's nice to see something that sticks out in a classy way.

My first SC got a kicking, she didn't like it and threw her big ends out in protest.

The second SC got a bit more of a kicking but she deserved it and liked it. I then got her a few enhancements but she didn't like them and spat her hybrid tubbies all over the place.

The latest SC is treated better but she decided she wasn't going to go backwards and so she's needing some love to get her back to her best.

She'll be back for more though, they always are
