I'm pissed.
If you make over 100k a year canadian why did you buy an 03 G35?! Did you purchase the car up front or did you finanace it?! It doesnt make sense if you make that much money. You must have a serious mortgage or something.

100k Canadian isnt that much in this town.. I got a 200 000$ mortgage and humm also you have the cost of living here is very expensive in northern alberta.. Everything costs a lot of money! Besides yes I could've bought another car however because im only 22 my insurance is very high. I play about 310$/month insurance.. I have a clean driving record but it doesnt matter, until im 25 it's gonna be that high unfortunately. I still owe about 13gs on the G. Which ain't bad. I also bank a lot of my money which im not going to use for the G.

Maybe if you searched for parts more wisely you'd save money. My Axis 20s were $1500, BFGoodrich KDWs(expensive a** tires) I got for less than $1000 brand new. Just becuz you have money to spend on your car doesnt mean you need to p*ss it away as fast as possible on overpriced parts.
Even if your prices are CAN funds, you still got screwed on most every part you bought. SHOP SMARTER

You guys are in the STATES. I got my wheels from wheel warehouse in florida.. 2400$ and I got a way bill for 400$.. Tires are half the price in the states.. Im in freaking canada everything is twice as expensive, we're only 30million people thats smaller than the size of california, production is smaller which makes everything more expensive. I actually do shop around for my parts. It's still expensive.
I would like to know what parts I got screwed on cuz I browsed this forum and also pretty much every website that sells parts Mynismo, TheZstore, SuperchargersOnline, Ebay... You guys are pretty hostile. I really try hard to shop for my stuff.. It's not that easy when you live in canada. You guys make it sound like everything is cheap, it ain't. I would like you guys to quote me on all the parts I got see what u can come up with!
