How much have you spent so far?
Just curious to see how much people have spent on their car. I know they have a thread like this on my350z and probably here too but i couldn't find it.. so i'll start a new one just for fun since I was budgeting for the holidays and calculated all my expenses. Besides all the other threads were way old anyways.. doesnt hurt to have a new one! :)
So ive calculated parts + labor + money i've lost from selling parts (which is the same as money ive made back from selling parts.. which is usually less than what I paid, which is why its a loss!) and came to a figure of 22k. I know there are people here who have spent more on modding than on the actual car itself. Show yourselves! :) To me this is a good way for me to keep check so I don't go overboard like some of you have! It'll be a good kick in the nuts right before the holidays if you haven't added up your expenses yet! |
$2250 on rims/tires, $800 for new rotors + pads... thats it... lol

flex bought it used.. the person only used it for about 1k miles if i remember correctly.. edfc i bought new.. thats about normal price no? installation of coilovers isnt all that bad.. its only like 150.. or something but to install the edfc, they charge a lot for that..took them a long time too so i didnt complain. If you browse around theres always coilover deals.. just be careful not to get a set thats been overused :)
