I've spent about $1600 on my car plus $1400 for the car. I'd be deeper into it, but I bought a daily driver to drive, so I could park my project......I hate when people drive around half done cars.
Ive had mine for about 5 months and have only spent under 3g's including the price of the car 1g and D15b $650.
So I guess you pay for your car by stealing money from people on AF? :nono:
