S8ET6 Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 The title says it all. Routine maintenance, performance parts, wheels and tires, cosmetics and audio modifications... whatever. How much does your "hobby" or "passion" or "money-pit" cost you per year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ol' Dirty Noodle Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 I'm upto $2500 this year but that's because it was the first year with the car so Stage 0 + 105k service + full exhaust + wheels & tires + the maintenance. Next year should be cheaper however, I spend whatever money I can on the car so if I had it I'd spend it so maybe it won't be as cheap lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trs80 Posted September 28, 2011 Report Share Posted September 28, 2011 Its only money. Either spend it when you have it or not when you dont. No point in saving it, cant take it with you when you die. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vagabond Posted September 28, 2011 Report Share Posted September 28, 2011 Yea, but you can live on it when you don't have a job, numb nuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trs80 Posted September 28, 2011 Report Share Posted September 28, 2011 If you need money to survive that's not my fault. Not everyone has to live off the capitalistic tit. Try being independent, it may open your eyes. Numb nuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you using Saddam Hussein's personal stash of liquid gold? Or unicorn tears with flakes of platinum suspended in the solution? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
