not really...that seems to be a big misconception...somethings can hurt your car...

it's all about finding a good combination...which is what i'm working on right now on my 355...it's built, but the combo is not perfect...it takes time to realize the full potential...
and i've spent $14000 on my car...so, it would suck if i cant perfect it...

nope...when i bought the car, i paid $5000 for it...

nope, $14000 for the motor, tranny, suspension, wheels/tires, accessories, and some mistakes (which cost me about $1500).
other than the body, it's a brand new car.
