How much time, money and love do u guys put into ur G anually?

I bought my 06 G35 coupe in dg last april ironically on 4/20 and sh$t i put my life, money heart and soul in this thing. Mostly money and im just wondering how devoted the rest of u guys are. I have not typed what i have in the car cuz its in the body shop for the next couple weeks getting a re-vamp but i calculated almost 12k into this thing so far and i havent even touched the sound system (crazy). But I love her and she damn well love me and take care of me as i take care of her.

Like i said just wondering how devoted to the mod bug u guys are so i dont feel so crazy when i think about my addiction to modding.

Too much...I've got over 6 years of hands-on labor invested into my car now.
Time flies when you're having fun!

i mean i have spent like almost 11k just in the last 10 months and i need to work on my engine bay to get everything polished, alittle bump in my trunk cuz the bose system blows and a couple extra breather mods and a tune and it is still going i feel like im gunna never stop and im just jealous of marcus's engine bay i want to bling soon but damn that **** is super pricey. I guess in due time, most of u guys been doin it for years and i just started 8-10 months ago. I am very happy with where i am. My friends tell me im crazy for going overboard but u guys inspire me to do more.

Serges, rather than tell us how much $$ you've dropped in your G post some pic. You show nothing in your garage or anywhere else....why? There's no way to stop the mod bug, when you think there's nothing else you can do....you'll find something!

Almost 6 years of ownership so far. One big project per year is how I've been running:
Winter wheels/tires
Speakers/sub/amp
Brembo brake swap
Sway bar
Lightweight rotors
MREV2/spacer
