Once you get to this point you start to wish you could brag about how little you spent instead.

I know I feel that way sometimes.

No way, .ALEX. spent less than that and his ening/trans/rear is 10x better **** than what your car has. His car is a full race car with cage and all SFI ****.

I've bought my car at least a FEW times over in mods by now and i'm nowhere near done

If i'd known I was going to do a 408 from the start I could have saved a lot of money.
