Seriously save your money. Once you start to spend you can't stop or you just need to spend more money to get it perfect. Its fun modding the 7 but fu*k, it kicks you in the *** later. This is because i spend all my money on my car, i just dont have any to be spending.

2004 - $10.5K 94 MB PEP
2005 - $2.5K CCWs & Tires
2006 - $3.7K Apexi intakes, Greddy SMIC, R1 strut bar, AST, HKS DP, RB DT, Defi gauges, Apexi PFC, Tune session, H&R, Bilstein shock/strut.
Still have $1.3K left for 2006; alum radiator & ACT/Flywheel replacement.
Total: $18K...not bad at all. Would have put that much down for a new C6 with 800/mth payment.
What matter the most is I like the end result...life is too short.
Enjoy while can.

A budget has been set aside in case the 7 need some sort of major repair. It's a toy, hardly see 1000 miles per year. Not because I don't drive it, just not having enough time.
