IMO, bought is if you buy something like THIS:

Personally I don't want a car like this to be garage built. That was fine for my EG, but the Prelude needs to be professional. None of the clicks, clanks, pops, ect, ect, of the usual garage built Honda.
But it's all good.

yeah it doesnt always work that way, theres too many whole in your theory. Im pretty sure he's put in wrench time on his car, even people who buy built cars put in wrench time.
Okay let's clear things up.
When I started this thread it was for those who put work into their car rather than buying a car thats already modded. Built not bought! Bone stock to as is done by you getting your hands dirty!
I understand that something you can't do yourself which is understandable. IE: rebuilding a motor because lack of PROPER tools and knowledge but suspension work, dropping a motor in, replacing a clutch/tranny... Doable.
Not trying to hate on anyone or put anyone down but built not bought means you put work into your car.

You like to hit men with your big wrench eh?
I'm just 100% sure you havent done everything to your car.. Did you build the frame?.. Did you draw the blueprints?. Did you assemble the car piece by piece? Technically from the way your saying it and according to your logic.. Your car is bought...
So stop criticizing other people.
