You guys are so lucky!!!
I just can't afford the insurance if i did anything to my engine just yet. And other modifications cost a fortune. But I'm aiming for 2 to 3 years time to have quite a nice car.
If i crashed my car I'd have to sell it cos insurance would be too much

Heh, I always find it interesting when it is the parents that purchase parts for these cars ;) I wish my parents still bought me stuff.

i wouldn't complain if someone else paid for my parts aswell... it's all good as long as the 3 gets modified :p
No seriously american modified cars are usually way better than over here cos you guys and girls have got the money
