Keep what you have man.

I've considered selling my car 10 times until I shine it up and take it out for a spin.

Since you have it paid for, save your cash for major mods.

If you want to make a fast car, sell your car for a 96-98 GT and with the money you have left over from selling your car, get the new trickflow heads and some cams, built rear with 4.10's, lowering springs(or just take out your lowering springs from your car and put the stockers back in to sell it), and some bigger injectors and you'll be set to make 3xxrwhp and still have a reliable mod motor car...and you can stop eating the dollar menu to afford it all. lol

Just wait. Are you a senior or a junior? Well it doesn't matter because in a few years your going to college and just watch your money leave. I too have a good job and I can't figure out where my money goes. I too want to have a 400 rwhp stang and I'm going to be close soon. But unfortunatly we need to be patience even though I don't want too. Save your money for college. Trust me. I bet these guys will chime in too.

My tuition for a year is 24k and still haven't needed to take out a loan. Then again I save money by living at home. I'm a junior and have this plus next year to go. Then law school.

Hes right about college, it sucks the money right out of your pocket
I would stick with the 2V for now, also good for u guys to have your jobs. Many people lost there jobs around here, including me due to an injury

*cough* get good grades *cough* college could be paid for, and you could use that 20k or so you would have needed and put it into a car

be like hey mom, hey pops, since I'm going to school for free, can i have some of that money you would have had to spend on me

thats what i did, i now have a nice little chevelle sitting in my garage waiting to be turned into a monster.
