          Rough estimates....

          Car: Free (hand-me-down from mom)
          Motor Swap: $4,000
          Fast makers: $900
          Exterior Mods: $800 (that includes rims/tires)
          ICE: $600
          Vehicle maintenance: $8,000

          ~$14,300 total in upgrades, but probably more

            Suspension = 600.00
            Audio/Security = 1750.00
            Wheels/Tires since purchase = 1500.00 (mostly tires, wheels were 200.00)
            Cosmetics = 400.00
            Engine/Drivetrain Maintnence/Upgrades = 2500.00
