yup, I guess that's why I find myself looking out the window every 5-10 minutes of the day to make sure she's still there :|
BTW my R is daily driven :wink:

My R is daily driven but i use my beater whenever i feel i'm going somewhere unsafe without attending her for too long.. if i do go to the mall, i park it right outside the store windows so that theres always people comming out to sort of scare thieves away from trying to rob it in front of them..

Thanks to all for the input. I have a daily driver and wanted to sell it to pay off a bill but just wasn't sure about having the R as a daily driver. I had a 01 R as a daily driver in KC for about 10months with no problems but now I live in TX, just purchased a 98 R and don't know about crime around here. To me it is just a fun car to drive and an awesome car on the track for its class. I didn't buy it to keep it in the garage. My main reason for debate is gas mileage and theft. Gas mileage is not bad but not as good as a beater getting 35 to 40 on regular unleaded if you know what I mean.
