Message	I just added up how much I've spent on my project car. Well it turns out, I could have purchased a brand new Subaro BRZ for the same amount. For those that have torn down their car to a shell and custom built their ideal version of a sports car, was it worth it? The motor still has to be assembled and tuned at SpecialtyZ so it's yet to turn a wheel. My sister's comment today via Facebook was "Cathe Forquer-Wood Holy fuck! Your crazy!" Would like to hear your opinions, good or bad.
