Doesn't end there either, unless you die. You just go buy another one and start over. But if you gotta be addicted to something, it might as well be fast cars.

Could be a $300 / day cocaine habit.

The resale comments are correct........you will not get a dime back on any of your mods.


After you wrap the car around a pole, thats when it ends...

Yeah, I can't leave my car alone. One thing that keeps me going is washing and waxing her at least once a week. People think i'm crazy because I clean my car so much, but I love it! I'm going for the Saleen Supercharger now, working my but off even though i'm still in school. I can't belive i'm actually going to be able to save $5,000 without blowing it on something else. I'm already $2,000 in on this baby and have so much more planned after.

Post some pictures of your ride, that'll keep you occupied for a little.

Yea, with the Kenne Bell SC, Exhaust, gears and a few other small items I am into it for an additional 12,000 which includes labor charges. By the way nothsa you may want to do your research before jumping into a Saleen SC, unless you like to gritty sound they have. Kenne Bell is quieter and is preferred by most Performance Shops over the Saleen. Just my .02

Yep, I'm still looking to add a GT500 spoiler and upgrade my brakes. Then maybe some suspension mods. I do have the CHE K member brace with torque limiters coming next week but with my SLP headers I have to have one of the brackets for the torque limiter refabricated to move it about 1 5/8 " so it will fit. And we aren't even talking about wheels yet, although I like the stock bullitt wheels, I just want 19x10s all around. Hmmmmmmm....gonna need a second job!

Let's not talk about money spent!

I'll just say I had to go get a new car for my wife because 'mine' may have just gotten out of hand with the upgrades.....
And I'll be darned if I haven't been scoping out superchargers for hers too lol (already went the suspension and 20's on hers too)

DAMN MUSTANGS!
