No thanks, I'll be under the hood.
You're lucky man.

hahaha im totally with you on that one fin.
asking my parents to be supportive of modding the car is like asking obama to stop running for president

Different strokes for different folks...I have a friend that is a hardcore audiophile and he spent $15,000 on his home STEREO...not a home theater, a STEREO....this is all he got... 2 speakers, 2 speaker wires, amp, cd player (not a dvd/cd player combo, just a cd player), and an audio cable that connects CD player to the amp...all that for $15,000....i was like...dude, WTF, you're nuts etc, then he was like...what about you and your watches? That's when it hit me...i spent about the same amount of money for 3 watches...
Yea i know, long post, just wanted to make a point....if you think about it, one mans junk is another mans treasure. =) Can someone post a pic of themselves and their car now? or is it still gonna be me only? lol

i'd rather spend that money on getting castrated...lol (not really)but come on....5g for that watch??? it don't even look special, it's like an ordinary watch.
besides, all it does is tell time, and it's not like it tells time better than a $25 watch.

What she should be feeling is shocked since I RARELY spend money. It's just that this car is the first car I've ever bought on my own, wanted it ever since I had first laid eyes on it, and now, I get to mod it the way I want it to look.

atleast that aston martin watch can conrtol your car, and not every watch can do that.
