Iam at about 9-10k right now and ive had my car for 7months .
Oh i hate how expensive moding is, but i love the feeling when you throw on a new part. Almost like you just bought a new car.

Im not quite on the same track as you guys. 4K in one year but my mod rate seriously declined when I maxed out my credit cards.
Believe me I would have a lot more mods if I could!

Last December I invested the $10,000 that I was going to purchase a TT with in Exxon stock. Considering the current market value and the 2 dividend checks I've received, I now have close to $12,400.

That is a 24% return in 7 months.

Must be..... Last time i was at nissan of reno there was a early 90's 300zx TT that has over 800 rwhp and over 50k invested but the guy liked racing honda civics and kept blowing the motor so he gave up on the project and sold it to a guy in FL for 25K. VERY expensive hobby...

Wow and no one cares. This is the Z forum where people spend their money how they choose. When i spend my money on my Z i dont think hmm what about that guy who made money with stock People like you will never get that the 24% you made alot of us would trade for the rush of 0-60 in 4 seconds and the feeling of accomplishment having built a beast of a car. I guess i will never understand people who trade fun for more money.

Actually ebay is a great place to unload stuff like this. I bet he might have to list it 3 times to get it sold. Thats around 200 bucks since ebay has programs for relisting items so it costs less the 2nd time around. Thats alot less then trading it in to a dealer and watching as they give you the same as the clown with a stock Z that took it to jiffy lube
