    I voted 5K+. Sad thing is, I'm at about 8, maybe up to 10 so far just with hatch, but that's mainly due to the theft, and the system I had in it before the theft (the system alone was over 4K). But then there's another G-note in the '88 coupe, and I'm already in about 2 g's with the '89 coupe (that includes the purchase price).

    I like the Accord for specific reasons, as I like my TL for specific reasons. I don't really like one better. They both have there + and -. I love driving both.

    Nope Accord is still in my posession. Had some calls though.

    I stopped counting but im probably around 8k with the two B20A's i bought then the mods from last summer added up to about 5k. I also bought the turbo and intercooler so it keeps adding up. At this point im not keeping track because im far from done be when its done it should be what i want.

    I have spent too much in the year and a half I have owned the car. For the car and all the money I have spent on it is around $10K. It's getting another paint job and a fully built LS/Vtec befor the year is over. Plus I'm getting to lexan windows and other stuff for it.

    I've spent about (more or less) $5900 for the car, full custom 2.5" exhaust, b16 engine w/tranny and ecu, swap parts,boost, various lighting, the needed stereo system, custom body work (done by me), and some other non-important stuff.
