as i was driving today i thought about all the stuff i bought for my car and how much they cost. so just wondering... how much money have you guys spent on your car after you bought it? not counting basic maintenance and what-not. i bought my car for $5000. and so far i've spent about $2146 during the 1 year and 6 months i've had my car.

I've got receipts and a meticulous record of every dime spent for "enhancements" for the 99.

Total right now including deposit for the motor swap and parts not installed: 6578.05. NOT including the purchase price. After the motor swap is comlpetely finished, that number is going to be above $10K.
