I know you are, I am giving you shit as well. In truth as long as we all like our cars that's what matters. I think your car looks clean as shit. Who cares how fast it is as long as it is fun for you.

Honestly bro, I'm bummed out over the nonsense. Wondering if I should just sell my car and walk away from the car hobby entirely. All BS isn't worth bad blood and bickering over shit. I hate it. I just want everyone to be happy and have fun.

Your problem is you get way to involved in this shit. You also have the bad habit of getting car envy. You look at all the guys with their z06, vipers, lambos, etc and start downing your shit because its not a high dollar car. I used to do the same thing and now I could give a shit less. I don't care who is faster than me, I won't spend a dime to be faster than the next guy. Hell my car hasn't even been in boost the last 5 times I've taken it out. I get people pulling up next to me telling me they love my car at least 3 times everytime I have it out. That is what I enjoy now a car that is fun to cruise in and turns heads. You don't have to have a 75k plus car to turn heads.

You're probably somewhat right. I wouldn't say I have high dollar envy, but rather horsepower envy. I never had a car N/A this long and it suuuucks. I suppose I should look at the glass half full, at least I have a hobby car. It really sucked being without one after I sold the Cobras. You're also right about being on here too much. I need to scale it back I guess. I just want to see this place grow and succeed.

Yes but all the cars you always talk about are cars I mentioned with power adders. So I should correct my statement to 75k cars with another 20k in them.

I personally don't know what you should do. Me personally I think your car is damn nice and would be fun as hell with a power adder but if you aren't feeling it you just aren't. Just remember being fast sucks because your shit breaks a lot. Being mid 600 hp is fun as hell and you don't have to worry about it. 99% of the cars you pull up against will not come close to that, we are just in a weird group of friends where that is average or slow. Don't use our group of friends as an example of what you should make hp wise.
