It's a typical thing, though... Give an f-body owner money and it will turn into parts for his car... Learned the lesson the hard way.

Be smart, why spend it on a car when all it will do is depreciate...? There is the fun factor, but you'll always want more, guaranteed.
Ahh, the killjoy has spoken lol. I agree with you 100%, but the urge to mod is a powerful one to overcome. It comes down to if you can afford to 'play' with this money, do with it what makes you happy. If you cannot afford to 'play' with it, save it or put it towards the other things in life you need.

I'm fortunate enough to have a few dollars of expendable income (not married, no kids), but I can see how you can waste a boatload of money on this hobby in a New York minute, and forget the other obligations you may have.

Not the advice you were probably looking for, but good advice nonetheless.
