Yes, they are. Some people here have sunk a lot of money into their cars. I have been fortunate that I don't pay for most of the labor, so I have only sunk $4k of my actual money (soon to be 5 or 6) into mods for my car as of now. With labor, it would be $10k or more :(

Holy(shocked). 30grand i here ya n the do it youre self bit. i can see 4 easy. i did 3 with in the first month no labor... but 30 grand... that 2 proteges plus the one you got already
 
curious?? how so...5 is still a good amount. whatchado?

got my car for 1 grand

stereo equipment and viper alarms totaled 1 grand

exhaust was 500

to fix and repaint some body damage was about 1 grand

the rest of the $1500 could be contributed to the rest of my mods (all used)..intake, header, rims, pulleys were new, motor mounts...thats all i can think of.
 
helluva deal. I'm trying to find another pro for a DD and you can't find something that new in good shape for less than 3k.

I did notice that the value of my car on kbb has gone up a couple grand from the last time I checked, I guess ppl are not overlooking pros anymore and are starting to realize that there is something to a nice handling car that gets good gas mileage.

Just the proteges are going up or all of them p5s and msp?
 
The pro5's have risen a lot (more appealing to the public I guess) and mine jumped almost $2k but I didn't check on the speeds. I'm sure other 4 cylinders are showing a similar jump with gas prices.
 
Some guy at the mall backed into me
at least he waited for me to get back to my car
he was going pretty fast and i guess didnt hit the brake
Im fine knowing that i wasnt in my car but when i got back to my car i flipped out
:-/
