Ann's Honda is due an honorable retirement soon, and pretty sure she would take to a Skyline / Infinity.
However, my tastes in cars tend to be more, what shall I say?, esoteric than Ann's. I have been warned that I will have no say whatsoever in our next change. So the Honda will be making way for something small and easy to park, that costs next to nothing to tax or insure, that can be serviced by small children or your average so-called mechanic, and that will drive for another 10 or 15 miles on the smell of petrol that your shoes pick up from the petrol station forecourt.
What's that?? You want to know the 0-100-0 time?? About July, I would say, maybe February if we buy the sports model.

Sorry to see your car selection days are over. Wendy has yet to pull that responsibility from my grasp.
The Infiniti/Skyline definitely does not meet Ann's fuel consumption criteria. It's slightly worse than the SVX is now (17 around town, low-mid 20's on the hwy), though it is still going through it's break-in period. It might also be a function of the driver fully utilizing all 260hp (use 'em of lose 'em).
Fuel mileage on my VW climbed dramatically once it passed 10K miles.
Cheers!
