Yeah, but it would've been stock. OEM=LOL.
Couldn't agree with you more, I feel people that say shit like that just aren't real enthusiasts and they just don't understand what modding is all about.

Some people don't get it - it's a hobby... the journey is the best part. I've been building up my car for the last 3 years, and I've been enjoying every minute of it. I know folks who spend more money on golfing... club dues, golf vacations, etc..

At the track or at any meet I appreciate the 458, the GT3, and Lambo... I'll check it out and take photos, but I'll talk to the guy with the modded golf, civic, or GT-R.

+1 at the end of the day sentimental value and the build is what matters.

Look at it this way, IND is getting paid and folks are gainfully employed because of Felix's project. He's doing his part for the economy.

This way the folks at IND can feed the starving kids in Africa.

What will you say next after he buys an exotic and then mods that too? Should've bought a helicopter?

I never understand these replies.

Power beast this car is truly exceptional and I believe the majority of us are excited, intrigued, understand the modding and appreciate it.

I don't know too many of you personally (wish I did and lived closer) but you can understand a lot about a person as to how they go about their lifestyles and how their treat their personal property (as well as others). We all work hard for the right to do whatever we want with the income we bring in and at the end of the day it's a passion and hobby like anything else.

We all at some point rationalize and assess tangible and intangible things in life.

With the money on modding and cars I have spent over the years I'm sure I could of purchased something very exotic or have a lot more saved up. But, I spend a lot of time in the car and I love the hobby/sport of it (as we all do).

I know plenty of people that will drop big money on a vacation, but drive a modest vehicle. Just different strokes for different folks.

I am certainly envious and a little jealous but in a good way. And yes what we spend on your cars does keep people employed. I am in the staffing business and its horrible to see how much work is outsourced overseas because its cheap.

Cannot wait to see the next step!
