Default buying a fixed up car

do you think buying a civic that is already fixed up (motor, lowered. etc.) is cheating? i mean, ive ready Siisi's post about him buying shengs car, and that sounded reasonable considering the price of all the parts, but i wanna know what you guys think.

I bought my car with a lot of stuff on it already, but since I've put at least a hundred hours into it doing my own modifications and changes, it doesn't feel like i'm driving someone elses creation. I've just saved a lot of money.

well...it depends on the person and what they're looking for

getting aftermarket parts is a plus...cheaper

less work, time and money for you to spend

it all depends on what the person's goals are, ya know

if you want to start from scratch, then go for it

so it depends

If you drive around acting like you did it all then you'll just get made fun of but as long as you try to do some other things then you're cool.

There is no problem with buying a car that has mods on it. You shouldn't worry about what other people think. The only thing that you should worry about is how bad or good they have been treating whatever car they are selling you. hey cat, what up sweet thang, can i buy yoiu a fish sandwich??

Buying a fixed up car...that takes away most of the fun. Get a virgin and do whatever you want to her.
