Man, I'm jealous of how reasonably priced the mods are for the ms3/6.

To see your shocks for $695 makes me want to cry.

Yeah, I really love German cars, but the average price of modifications is very high for my taste at the moment. And it seems like installation part for German cars is a little bit more complicated than that of Japanese vehicles.

But I do know that German cars have that distinct driving feel that just can't be matched by Japanese cars. They feel so solid for some reason.

4x4 status is underrated

I had a friend(sorta) who was in a civic coupe 02ish? on tien coilovers, rear swaybars, fatter wheels, summer tires took out his rear seats. We went canyon running, tried to keep up with me in my stock tl running on 215 all weather tires and ended up spinning out and crashing. Only conclusion I can think of... he messed up his car with all the mods.

so it looks like you have more of a sleeper that way too

I have yet to ever do a mod on a car haha no money and i'm not wasting money on my tl. A macbook pro is worth more lol

One day I will do a few mods though. I can't imagine me changing a whole car up. ALthough I want a track built car one day!! Gonna be an expensive ass hobby!

It's a fast 4x4 though.
