I think most people are just surprised that someone would spend more on mods than the car is worth. I mean, the K20A2 + LSD + New Wheels/suspension must have been over $10K alone with labor.

 

I figured as much. Not sure what I'll end up doing, but before I concern myself with things like that I need to get the car first.

 

I spent $15,000 on the car itself, which I bought in March of 2004 and just paid off last month. I have spent another $45,000 on mods. I am sure that number will raise the BS flag for some of you, but rest assured I have receipts for everything. I originally bought the car for commuting. I had NO intention of doing anything to it other than upgrading the wheels. Things just started evolving. Up until about a month ago, my plan was to enter my car in car shows and stereo competitions, as well as autocross and drag it. My plans abruptly changed when a local dealership told me they would sell me a new S2K for such a good price. An S2K has much more potential, in pretty much every aspect, then my Civic and looks a heck of a lot better.

 

$60K Civic? Wow!

 

Can't you get an used NSX and mod that instead?

 

Too late!

 

welcome. by any chance did you buy spoon us's get rich book or attend his seminars?

 

Yes...pretty ridiculous but it is what it is.

 

Sure...that is a possibility...but I can get much better financing options on a new car vice a used one.

 

Nope...just make decent money and try to pay cash for everything.
