You spent how much???
There are many of us out there who have put more money into a car than its really worth. But how far would you be willing to go? Whats the most amount of money you, or someone you know has put into a car? Thats including upgrades, repairs, appearance, etc..?

Re: You spent how much???
Currently I put $700 in my CRX. In about a year, a K20A2 engine swap is planned, estimated cost: $5-6000. Does that answer your question? Some people think it's a waste, but not me.

$80.00 for brakes.
$600 for the car. $1,100 for the wheels and tires. $1,000 for misc interior and exterior trim. I honestly don't know what my budget is for the car total. I just work out a budget for each different modification. It might cost me and upwards of $20,000 to finish the car. |
