What do I do now? I cant bring myself to spend $8g's on a built motor and big turbo.

BTW im 22 years old about to graduate from college.

 

Congrats. I say have fun with it and do the driver mod.

I wish I can say my evo is paid off. Soon

 

Dam i just got started paying the evo!

 

my evo is paid off too but I couldn't help myself to buy the shearer 6765 kit and I just purchased a 2.1 map motorwhich I will be running e85 on lol. With the extra freed up income I couldn't resist! You know its eventually coming or if not some other nice "expensive" mods

 

congrats brO i still have one more year left :] but i'd say have as much fun with the car and if anything brakes then u have that extra cash to fix it lol or buy a DD and use it on weekends only

 

some people are just in better situations than others. Kudo on the pay off. I would say start slow with any aftermarket parts and figure out what you really wanna do with your ride lol

 

You should throw on an FP black and rip up the rod for cheap

 

Congrats, can't wait to finish paying mine.

 

Congratz on the pay off!!! Drive it for now and do it up after u graduate and are making that phat money.

 

I'm in the same boat! Can't wait til mine is paid off too!!

 

This. Can't wait to buy a dedicated DD.

 

Can't wait to finish paying mine off. After im parking it locking it up insurance is coming off and im building the **** out of it.

 

The OP didn't ask everyone to post whether or not they have paid off their own cars....Anyway since its now paid off maybe a modest turbo upgrade would be nice if you haven't already.. Red or Black perhaps.

I haven't bought a car on payments in nearly 20 yrs. I imagine thoughts of buying a home and retirement aren't really the first things on your mind, but I can tell you I know several guys who were able to retire before they were 30. However, for each of them I know 100's of families who struggle from paycheck to paycheck. At 22 and college educated you're at a significant advantage and I'd suggest a "financial makeover" before compiling a mod list for your Evo. You might even be able to find some of his books in the school's library.

 

Save up for a house? With a garage.

Or just mod it.

Remember, you can sleep in your car but you can't drive your house.
