Disbelief in the amount of money I have spent!

I've had this car for 8 months now.

I've spent only $995 in parts.

I've spent little here and there on oil, wax, etc. I'm sure it's totalled to $100 or so though, at least. I don't know the exact. But that's minimal stuff.
 
Im at around 15-16G's...still got alot more to do..and i have to finish paying off my car loan,, like 9G'S...But then again i didnt deduct all the stuff i sold...

Damn guys. That's a lot of money. I really don't make much right now while going to college, just enough to pay the payments and some extra. I've spent less than $100 so far modding the car. However, once I get this +$400 sweet ass tax refund I got coming to me, its time for exhaust.
 
ya i have already spent 2000 of my tax return on my car...... add that to the tally
 
well lets see... at first I spent 14k for the car. Injen CAI... that's around 200, fmic 870, turbo back, around 950, fpr+fcd+mbc around 70, front and rear mm around 130, turbo timer around 80, rotorworks rotors + pads group buy I think that was close to 300, misc guages and s*** around 200, 2 450w 10" and bandpass around 200 (had a hookup, plus I didn't want a killer streo system... just a little beat), Spark plugs eh... who cares. But with all this the motor blew. So I'm rebuilding (check the thread in this forum (general). This adds on 8,000. For my wagner shortblock, gt28rs, custom manifold, injectors, greddy e-manage.... and well a few other goodies :) If you're interested like I said... check my thread. But anyways... rough grand total:

11,000

With the car included:

25,000

But hey you gotta do what you gotta do right? Once agian this is just a rough estiment... more can be found on my thread in a few days.

Peace
 
Hmmm, rougly $1017 and some change....not too bad i dont think and im extremely happy with the car!!!
 
im 50 dollars shy of 3k....gonna add another 4k in a couple of weeks because a stupid hill got in my way when i was turning.....So the total is about 19k including teh car....not to shabby.
 
This thread sucks... (rofl)

I refuse to figure it all out. :p but it's uhmmm A LOT.
 
I spent $400 on some springs and shocks. I must be a lamer for liking my car almost stock.


LOOK I SPENT ELEVENTY BILLION DOLLARS MY PENOS MUST BE REAL BIG!
 
way too much on all the different setups my car has had, between the turbo, all the wheels, the jdm crap it has now it has to be pushing 8k or more.
 
I don't mind thinking about how much I've spent as long as it improves my car. The worst part is money spent on regular maint. As soon as I am ready for a piggyback, I'll need to do a tune up or my 60k check up.
 
I totally agree w/ ND4MSP. This is my hobby. Expensive hobby.... yes, but anyone who wants to modify their car knows going into it that money will be spent. To some $100 is alot, to others $10,000. With labor, I've put about $2,500 plus $4,800 for a new engine and installation but, I love my car and she's worth every penny I've put into her. Just my two cents. Peace.
