about 1800 in the GTO probably close to 35k in the camaro went threw 1 crap motor before deciding to go serious with it. Still gotta put a cage in it an do all the odds an end that add up when you put them together.

I paid $50K for my C6Z and put about $2000 into mods... I swapped the nitrous kit from my C5z to my C6z and just had to buy a new plate.
$40K for the T-rex.. I put about $500 in mods
$22K for the 04 Chevy Diesel which came with about $6k worth of mods
$12K for the SRT4 and it came with the orig big turbo kit, then we sold the orig turbo and bought a bigger one.. maybe $3000 more into the car as it sits now
and I just picked up a 2003 Cobra vert with a Hellion76 Turbo kit. we will she what the grand total it in about 2 weeks
and parents never paid for anything

Bought mine for $10k, and have $15k in mods thus far. I don't know where the money went! It's still pretty slow haha j/k.
When I think of this, and think of what I want out of the car (9seconds, street/strip), I think if I should sell this car in favor of my dream car...a 69 Pro-Touring Camaro. It's either that or do a 99-04 Mustang with an LSx swap because I like the looks of the Stang.
I'm only going to be able to afford to build one car entirely in my lifetime so I want to choose the one that I can see myself keeping for long long time.
