Well I'm 20 years old, and I have only had my car since march...Making it a total of 5 months...I work full time at a funiture plant in the mill...hard ass back breaking work, but it pay's the bills and is putting my girlfriend through Ole Miss right now (Even though she still has a shitload of state grants because she's smart at hell...there are some expenses that she needs help with)...

Modifying car's is my passion, I cannot leave anything in stock form for long. As soon as I get one part that I say will be the last thing I put on in awhile..I order 3 more...My job pays' fairly well, but its not incredible. I have dumped alot of money into it in 5 months, and plan on putting a lot more...My s2000 is my way of expressing myself in a form of a material item..You share a mutual respect with people out here with your taste in cars...For example, if you are at the gas station pulling up, and a guy with a modified Supra pulls up you already have something in common with one another and that gives you reason enough to go and have a conversation with the person..You are both car enthusiast, you can learn from one another and share in your love of cars.

My goal for my car?...To make it flawless, no stone left unturned, a complete rolling work of art that truly show's my taste and pride in owning such an amazing machine as the s2000. I loved the s2000 in it's stock form, but once you get the bug...You cannot stop modifying it...For example: You lower your car...Well now you've got to get rims to complete the package...You get an exhaust, hell now you need a test pipe and header...see what I mean?..I have a passion for cars of all kinds, I love being around people who also have a great love for cars and modifying, people that you can have a conversation with that are on the same level as you in your knowledge for cars...

This is just how I feel anyways..Kinda went off on a rant so I stoped myself before anyone fell asleep.
you spent im sure over 12k's on the car, you pay for your gf's expenses and all that extra stuff, still eat food, buy water, shit normal, and buy clothes and you still have money to spare? something doens't sound right to me. I'm not trying to hate dont get me wrong, im just trying to understand how ppl get all these parts while they have decent/below average jobs that usually puts ppl into the making ends meat category. btw, you do have one hell of a nice car!

[QUOTE=B SweepeR B6,Aug 15 2005, 04:42 AM] i still haven't really been able to figure out how someone between the ages of 18-23 can afford all these parts and the car at the same time.

I am 25, enrolling in a MBA program thats ranked 20th in the whole world, so I guess its okey for me to blow some money via CC ahead of time and pay back later. If you work hard/study hard, you can afford some nice things.

I am not a baller, I am just too simple minded thats it.
I'd love to have a sponsor though.

Shieeeeet......I wish I had something like that over here when I was doing my car. I had to pay for everything my damnself (with ALL the GOOD sh*t I had )

-Chris
theirs nothing over here on the East Coast...Everytime i need parts i make a call to West Coast...It seems like all the hook ups are there...Modding a car in NJ is tough, but im just enjoying the time and effort i guess...its a hobby/passion for me, not a job...
