Message new car with how much I've spent...... granted my car isn't in new car quality, the chassis has 240k+ on it but all in all, if it was mint I probably wouldn't beat on it/have as much fun with it..... and I honestly don't know what else I would drive... they don't make em like they used to.

Added all up I'm still under $20k...... I can't even buy a brand new Altima for that, let alone a Lancer Evo or 370z....... or even a base Corvette which I can drop trow and take an angry poop on any one of those in a straight line...... possibly even on a course- I was pushing modded 370's (with about $10k in handling goodies) during Zdayz

$6400 92 5spd NA (bought in 2004)
