At the end, it depends on what situation one is in then. If for you, would you have one car or two cars?

For me probably better just 1 car coz I don't have space to park more cars now. I can actually get a cheap/crappy car and just park it outside my house but I don't prefer driving such crappy car daily. I want to drive something that at least I enjoy to some extent. To me no point suffering every day looking at and driving something I don't like and only enjoy something I like on the weekend, that can make me stress which in the end does no good whatsoever. So like I mentioned earlier, for me the ideal solution is to have a powerful sedan, so practical enough yet has good performance, and of course I have to like the look of it.

Exactly as what I mentioned. Daily must be something I love to drive......lol

True about your points. To fulfill your requirements, not many cars on the market can perform such role. Some may even require high maintenance costs. I think your method is workable but the owner probably needs to spend more money compared to having the performance car as a non daily car. But then, I think it also depends on which performance car is chosen for daily.

1 modded car ok laa for daily. Just mild mod to make it for cheerful to drive and can overtake other 'ricer' enough la. No need fancy high cam, etc. Just my 50 cent opinion.

If is like yours, that is okay.

Heavily modded ones or high performance cars like Supra, RX-7, Skyline and the others in that category probably will be too much for daily even though one can afford to buy the cars.

Those car you mentioned in stock condition already super powderful. No need extreme mods oredi. Plus, most of the people who can afford these beast are not working 9-5 jobs. #truestorybro

That is why in the beginning already mention, what extent of mod? If stock skyline still ok, if mod some more for what unless you track it......lol

Drive an ubermod skyline for street creds..

 

[Shinjite]

Well different people have different definition of 'streetable'
As for me, just don't over do it, one knows their car best

Actually something in the 200-350hp range is good enough for me, I'm not a pro skillful driver anyway to really exploit that. To me I think a std to mildly modded Evo would be the most hardcore I can still take as a daily, anything beyond that is probably getting too much to tolerate at my uncle age now. If got much money, the CLA/A45 AMG would be great. If still struggling like me now, then Mark X is good enough, at least meet minimum requirement (and not protested by the wife). If I were to go for the weekend car approach, I'd get the Lotus Elise.

Some say stock Skyline are a bit restrictive and slow even for Skyline GT-R? Since it is heavy and makes around the same power as Evo and STI. Still, 2.5 litre or 2.6 litre turbo engine still sounds like heavy FC in my opinion.

I thought Evo's suspension setup is a bit too stiff for daily use? For fetching family, maybe that is not so comfortable? I could be wrong though. If for me, a 200-350hp daily family car would probably be cars like Legacy turbo or Accord Euro R. Not as hardcore as Evo and larger interior space.

My VR at it's peak was 200bhp, which I find more than enoguh for daily use, so if is newer Evo those are at 280bhp should be more than enough.....no need mod for daily loh......hhahahhaha
