what would you spend $10K on?

[sLoWnStEaDy]

Ok, say you where saving a bunch of money to go to a nice but REALLY expensive school. Then do to a TON of different things you decided it would make much more sense to go to a closer school which cost only 8% of what the other school cost. So point being you have a bunch of extra money, like $10K "burning a hole in your pocket"

WHAT WOULD YOU BUY/SPEND IT ON?


I was thinkin buy my crotch rocket this winter (ive been lookin for quite some time and they are dirt cheap in the winter) buy a nice front wheel drive 4banger, and build a DOHC motor for my fiero that can handle like 20 pounds of boost.



EDITED: that was a spelling DISASTER!!

1. 94 to 96 Caprice, impala ss clone
2. Buy various crappy cars i keep finding for real cheap and make my own car dealership
3. Beer
4. actually fill up my gas tank.

[Accord4sale]

Sounds like a 1.8t Golf and some spending money to me.

[Luminatorz34]

Twin Turbo's for my camaro ;) hehehehehe

[biohazard]

I have a plan if I had $10k to burn. It involves a nice 360 and some modifications to my car.

i'd buy nice stuff for my house. idk. i'm boring. zac and i are getting to move prolly within 6 months or so. so i'm stuck on thinking about houses for the time being. lol.

[Braz'in06]

I to would go with the twin turbo's& Intercooler(s), then I'd need another 10k for a tranny & rear diff. Later, Al

[Talon92Fox]

- Light blue '69 Camaro Yenko 427
- Some cheap daily driver
- Cheap/Nice house
- Remaining money into savings

[Ashley]

fox you only have $10,000... you're gonna buy a house with that? lol

[Stro]

I heard on the radio yesterday, that some girl (i didn't hear where this happened) was waiting tables at her work and some random stranger left her a $10,000 tip. NO JOKE. he handed it to her and was like "here you go this ought to get you something nice."

Sounds like a nice guy, i need to bump into him at a Handimart or something.

If i were to just spend the money, it'd be on a sweet turbo and built motor for my civ. (call me old fashioned.....)
Or i'd put into a bank somewhere with great interest rates and let it grow a while.

[RandomHero]

down payment on a house

you have 10k not 100k

[krustindumm]

save up some more then make a down payment on a cheap house near a k-wood campus. Rent it out to people to pay the morgage.

[melhoneybee]

get a decent newer car...
put the rest to the condo... if there was any

[DustinsDuster]

i'd buy a week with George Carlin.

[biohazard]

Haha, yes. And get into an argument with your breakfast cereal.

[NewSpeedSteed]

Forged internals ($1200; out of a wrecked 03-04 Cobra) (Need everything but the crank- crank is already forged)

Stage 2 Crower cams ($1,100)

31 spline axles ($800)

New Black/Chrome Bullitt deep dish wheels and some sticky rubber ($1500)

Stock 03-04 Cobra Clucth Assembly ($600)

Full Exhaust ($2000) (All MRT stuff- LT headers H pipe and catback)

Steeda Sort Shifter ($160)


Total: $7,360

Hmm... I guess I'd buy a buttload of lotto tickets and hope I score big so I could continue.

[Ricky]

wait exhuast for your car costs $2000? wtf. ^

[JustinS]

I would put it away and save more for a down payment on a house for when my girlfriend and I graduate college. Seems like the best option to me.

[NewSpeedSteed]

wait exhuast for your car costs $2000? wtf. ^


Yeah it is crazy but it breaks down like this: good set of headers (not the cheap shorty style) $950.00, H pipe $515.95, and a catback $450.00. Total: $1,915.95; not quite 2 grand but that is witout shipping and tax.

It is on the expensive side because:

A) My car isn't the same as a reguar 16 valve Mustang GT its a 32 vavle Mach 1. Even though it is just the headers that are diffrent the sound and exhaust pipe size is bigger than a GT- some people with Mustang GTs swap stock mach 1 catbacks and H pipes for their stock parts.

B) My car is a limited production car parts arn't as common- although most 03-04 SVT Cobra parts work.

C) I will only buy high quality stuff for my car.

Its the price I pay for wanting something diffrent and unique.

[TbTalon94]

I would either put it on as a downpayment on a brand new car or put it into my house.

I would have to pick from a few cars though

07 Evo, 07 STI, 93-98 Supra, 92-99 3000gt...i could go on. I would probably look for a Supra right away and try to find one thats immaculate. I already have a house, so i guess it's all cars for me :biggrin:

I guess I could build a motor and tranny for my GSX...but it's getting old and I can't really justify spending 10k on it.
