I don't know about you guys but including the cost of the car I put around 14,000. 7,000 for the car after taxes lisence and warranty, then 4,000 into my engine swap so far, another 3,000 into body kit rims and tires, and system. I'm only 17 with a minum paying job at subway. Still live with my parents so that helps. What about you guys?
How much money is in your Celi? - 6G Celicas Forums
I spent 9000 for the car(94 st),
5000 on paint and bodywork
1600 for wheels/tires
600 for chrome plating(engine parts and suspension parts)
1200 for interior
3000 for stereo(clarion autopc/kicker zr-1000 amp/zx460 amp/3 solobaric 12s)
500 for intake/header/exhaust
I worked at an import shop at the time, so I got alot of my stuff pretty cheap. I would blow 80% of every paycheck on the car as well. It was fun but im a little older now and have other priorities(rent/insurance/girfriend). Ive already posted a link to the pics on another thread, but here it is again if youd like to see it. Its nothing too crazy, but I liked it, and it was nice having something other than a honda(not knocking hondas, there are just soooo many of them modded)

Must be nice to be able to spend so much money - car looks great, but those are some crappy pictures - take some more - in the daytime too.

LOL, yeah the pics are pretty bad. It was sleeting outside, and I was freezing. I sold the car awhile ago so I dont have any new pics on the computer. I will scan some photos I have later on.
