    let's see...from the day I bought the supra to present day, I've spent about $10,000+ on the car. On the corolla, haven't spent anything in modifying her, but trust me...it's itching...

    What a waste of money. Remember it's just a Japanese rolla. Spend the 20 g's when you move into german territory. I love my rolla, but the most I would spend on it would be $2,900 for the shitty supercharger that should have a 50% increase rather than 35% only because its warranted.

    A BMW? Come on now, that car is pretty generic now in the german market unless you have a custom M3 with work done to it. Anyways BMW's lost their touch when everyone and their mothers started leasing and owning them here in Miami ( and pretty much all the other big cities in the states). I'm 19 too, but my next car will be german but AUDI R S4 son (German version of S4) at 25 like you said. My 03 altis has been great for me thus far though.

    hmmm... between rims/tires, cai, exhaust, strut bar, springs, grille, projectors, neons, system, i'd estimate just a bit over $2,000. I doubt I'll stop anytime soon though lol.

    Wow.. how do you plan to get an RS4 here?

    I'm curious because my dad, although he's happy with his S4 Avant for now, is always thinking about one...
