Which is why none of you should have children, just spay or neuter yourselves. :hang:

🙂

Seriously: if you are METICULOUS in your upkeep of the car, replacing worn parts, maintenance, etc. and you **DO NOT CHEAP OUT when making mods** (i.e. do it right the first time), you will have very few problems. Deviate from this, and your child will make you rue the day you brought it home. Do your research, and make sure you think things through when modding this car. Cover all the bases.

_On second thought, don’t get a DSM. I’m waiting for a few more to get fucked up, then I’ll be exclusive again :tup:_
