lol these are only like 30k new.

If that was a financial mistake, perhaps the plate should stay "STILLPOOR".

This, I should mention, is coming from someone who has never had $30k in his life and drives an older model of one of these cars (which i fucking love, btw).

It's not that the car is relatively affordable that has made him poor, it's the mods. I've seen people spend multiple times the MSRP of a car in mods alone, which is a poor decision to do with this car because it's entire purpose was to be an affordable sports car.

Couldn't be me.

Totally not waiting for a ~4000eur parts delivery for this exact same model of car tomorrow.

Cool, i love the anticipation for new parts. 4k in parts, i'm guessing turbo kit?

[–] vodka@feddit.org 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Nah, I want it to stay completely legal (turbo conversions would either be illegal or cost tens of thousands to get TUV approved here) It's just a bunch of NA mods, headers, new exhaust, flywheel, all that

[–] Lommy@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

That's awesome! Ah, the TUV. Fortunantly we don't have that here yet. I hope you recieved everything in good order today and wish you a lot of fun installing and driving!

They arrived in time, and fitted perfectly! Now to wait for Fensport to do some remote tuning :)
