I have spent over $14,000 so far and still have about another $5k to go to get where I want to be... I love this car but it is a huge money pit.

I dont think C5 made me spend and more or less, Well I guess it did because of the ideas I have seen on others cars on here, And being that I bought a set of tires and wheels from a member on here that has to add towards mone spent, Im about 4k into it so far with more to come soon

I have purchased 100% of the mods for Veteran1 from vendors right here on Camaro5, and it's safe to write that combined, you could by a 2011 1LT with the funds.....

My wifey reminded I should throw in the travel costs to the various events I've attended with Veteran1 (SEMA, Pinks All Out, Fireball Run, GM Nationals, National Memorial Day Parade, etc) and I definately could buy the new HP

I try to think not so much how it has cost me but how much I have gained because of it.

They saved me money, considering I would of ended up doing the same mods at twice to cost, I'm sure I would of bought something that looked good on the net but not on the car, then the replacement part to make it look right again..
