I don't know what is really rare on the car...but they sure are overpriced
EDIT: Parts that is...the cars themselves are relatively cheap

My car is awesome. 100% stock, slow as balls, but looks great, drives great, and I have no fear of it breaking on me.
I have all this crap to put in it like a DSBC, Tein coilovers, gauges... even a turbo timer, but to be honest, I have absolutely no drive to do anything to it right now.

[quote=""GTO Assassin""]Can you please explain that for me. Over here in Australia, that line is very true. I have to get all my parts from the US. Isn't that your country?[/quote]
You just finding out that aftermarket for these cars are rare?
Dealer rarely have shit in stock.
Aftermarket is expensive and sucks in terms of quantity.
Hell, if you need 2G tranny parts, you are basically screwed.

I've got nothing else to spend my money on so I don't really give a shit about all the money it takes from me.
And if it breaks on the way to Prom I can just call AAA. Auggie I'll make you a deal. Pay me 500 bucks + trade. I would ask for 1000 because its green, but since I love you so much

Why the hate on green? I really dig the color. The 3/S doesn't exactly have exciting colors.

3/S had some great colors. The blue above is great, the red on the 1st gens is a really nice super bright red, the pearl colors are unique and very specific to the 3/S. Can't ask for much else...especially since pretty much every other sports car comes in black/white/red and nothing else

Rob, I really hate you. Your car is so clean. It looks like it just came off the showroom floor
I'm beginning to hate my car as well though. It's moved 10 miles in the last 6 months. Fat ass useless pig.

So clean!! Reminds me of my old TT...so perfect inside, was awesome!
That just means you can get more for it when you sell it because you're sick of it

I prefer the cream interior over the black. My 91 SL had lovely cream interior like that.

Thanks for the compliments

. I will say this though, there is no need to hate your car. I can relate to how you feel Shawn, I worry a lot about my car when I drive it. I'm especially paranoid of other drivers or paranoid that some freak thing is gonna happen that will cost me eleventy billion dollars. I'm so emotionally attached to the damn thing it makes me sick thinking about anything happening to it. I have driven my car about 10 miles since Blue Ridge (in June) due to a fubar fuel line and wheel bearing.
That being said, just take solace in knowing that whatever happens, it can be fixed. You've worked hard over the years building your car the right way and gaining enough knowledge about it to be able to make the right decisions when problems arise. Live in the moment when you drive your car and just enjoy the hell out of it. Nothing is wrong with it now so why worry about it? Enjoy hauling ass and looking good while doing it, it's what our cars do best.
