That's what we all say

I spent nearly $35,000 (taxes included) on a new Evo. I love it as it is. I'm looking to get new wheels, but have to convince the wife that it's worth it

I dont want to think of all the money i have spent over the last 4 months so i don't. Just keep on saving and buying. Setting small goals as the time goes on and hoping for a more well paid job. for a big boy build

$4000 so far this year. New harnesses, battery relocation kit, fuel system to support E98 and a burnt up PC680 before I put a normal batt in the trunk.

Last year was ~$30K with the build at Buschur, buying a 2nd set of wheels and 2 sets of tires and some other stuff.

The year before that was $3800 or so. New FP red, some maintenance items, tires.

The year before that was $8K or so. Tuning, sheptrans/tcase, clutch and other bolton stuff.

4k so far for 2013. I'll probably drop at least another 10k before the end of the year.
