As for me, I need a hobby. Car parts are more expensive than other hobbies, but it's a lot healthier than computers/gaming and won't scare people off like trains or pokemon or whatever.

I don't flex the EVO's muscles alot either, but it's the sweet satisfaction that I can at the blip of the throttle that's so intoxicating.

I mod my Evo and other cars to make them the best they can be. For me it is kind of a pursuit of perfection for that particular car. Because I drive it mostly on the street I want to make my Evo an "ultimate street car" of sorts. As I get into more true sports cars I'm sure I will find stuff that performs better in some ways but for now the Evo is it for me.

I am obsessed with engines. Anything with an engine, I want to make it faster. I like to see how far I can take it. I also like to work on other peoples cars to see the look on there faces when they hit the throttle. Priceless.
