I'm just funny that way

I've been doing that on Microsoft Excel since I got my car last year and if you wanna see a pic of it there one on a thread called "how much have you spent on your 3rd gen" if I'm not mistaken. So far my money invested on my car is $4,588.58 and thats not including car price, plates and registration or city stickers.

I have an ejector seat for anyone who wants to smoke and I carry a loaded shotgun in the back seat for any bird that attempts to **** on my car.

Oh and a 1,000,000 candlepower spotlight that pops out of the trunk for people who tailgate at night.

I hate when people want to mess with my stereo or
heater,AC controls. Ask and I will adjust if I feel like
it's needed. I already had to replace heater controls
because a friend was to cold and broke temp lever.
Now it's ask or get your hand smacked.
