but if you dont mind that, there is bigger money to be made there, depending on what u do

Yea, I mean think about it almost 10k is a lot to spend @ one time. But I can still pay my bills and feed myself. You just have to be smart on how you do it and plan ahead.

Secondly, don't try to whip anything out...I don't care if you were crawling in the jungles of 'Nam! I was in Kuwait back in '91 and during the begining of OIF in '03. Put your "stripes" away and zip it up.

I have no intension of selling my car for that reason unless I can get a fair price for the car not in a part out sale.....because I know my car was done by one of the best shops with the best of parts with no short cuts taken. This is why I intend to MAX it out. The only parts you will find for sale off my car are parts that i intend to upgrade.
Its sad when you see someone invest 30K+ in a car worth 30K+ and then turn around and sell it for a loss of 30K. SAD !!!
