    I'm coming up close to the 10k mark, and that's all besides the purchase of the car. Plenty more to go also. Ugh.

    I dont have the break down, since Ive been thru so many rim sets, brake setups, turbo setups, transmissions, clutches, motor mounts, multiple paint jobs, multiple trunks, hoods, bumpers, door panels, seats, windshields......., but I have over 20k on the red 94 ES with original purchase price of $1000.

    I bought the green 94 GS for $800 and I have about $3000 sunk into it.
    God created turbo lag to give the v8's a brief moment of hope.

    Calculated around $8500ish minus $1000 on resale item = $7500 spent

    Just shy of owning the car for two years. Almost at 50k miles :(

    Projecting $2-3k for 2013

    Wow, gotta show this thread to my wife so she sees how frugal I've been. I think I've spent a total of $5k on my car including buying it from the junk yard. That includes estimated costs on getting all the AWD swap components.
