I agree with the others, but understand the need for shelter (especially when the better half is involved .lol.). Since I'm looking for a C4 PM me with what you think is fair if you do decide to give in to the madness.

DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT add up the money spent in your cars. There is nothing good that comes out of that.

Fill (used to be Phil) had a thread on this some times ago, like 2003/2004. That was a classic thread in my book.

Visualize your kitchen sink full of water with the drain plugged. The water is like money, think mods; then remove the drain plug some. See what happens...

Suspension + FPB = $1700
Two sets of Exhaust Tips = $ 550
Alingment = $ 400
Oil change (2 lazy 2 do) = $ 300
TS tail + paint = $ 1700
Misc Repairs = $1500
Tip Boot = $ 100
Caliper paint =$ 100
Smoked corners = $125
Bling gauges = $ 60
Invincashield = $175
2 immobilizers + keys = $400
2 bumper stops = $ 65"

So, you've ignored my advice. A quick scan... I'd say you've spent close to $900 in mods. There. Leave it at that. Erase that list.

To paraphrase an old saying: " I have spent gobs of money on women and on the 993; the rest of the money was squandered."
