Ive been wondering for all the swappers out there, how did you get your money up? its been on my mind for a while, never really asked.
different strokes different folks! would love to hear some stories too! (not limited to engine swaps) ive been considering working in the boom boom room on ladies night.... and i think carsponsorships.com is a pimping device...

QUOTE(celicasteve @ Jun 24, 2006 - 6:02 PM) [snapback]448414[/snapback] So then taking out a loan to buy a house is stupid also, Everyone just save up to buy a house full in cash, it so stupid that you don't have $300,000 just for the cost of the house, then add everything up...what? you don't have that in your bank account? Lazy!!! You've been spending all your money on like rent? why when you could live at home??? Sorry some of us have responsiblity and bills!! And fiances A Car decreases in value over the years. Car that you buy for 30k euro is worth 1/3 after 5 years. So what do you have left. 20k euro lost in 5 years = 4000 a year, makes 350 dollars/month. Maybe by that time you have payed out the loan with also alot of interest. When You buy a House its completly different. A House usually increases in value. Its a long time investment you make which, when your moving away to another (bigger/expensive)house, can be used to either upgrade your mortgage or do something else with it. OKAY in both cases its not really your own property but at least with a House you can't total it or be totaled in traffic!!! And what does the payment+interest cost for a house maybe 6-700 dollars a month. Double that of my example of the car but at least have more then only 4 seats and a steering wheel in your possesion!! The Mods and swap and the Car itself I bought with money I had on my Bank Account. With more to ad. I have enough money on the bank to Buy a Real GT4 and mod it to 500 BHP and still having money left. And what do you have then. A 12-7 year old car that is not worth anything when you sell it. Buying a House in 1-2 years I can decorate the Entire house and buy a piece of it making the mortgage lower therefore the rent is lower.
