And I sell parts and what not that I don’t need which is a few hundred here and there, as well as just recently going halves with my dad buying cars that need work, helping him with what he needs, selling them for more and splitting the profit. How’s that for you, Wayne? ---

> [@94Gt5.0](#): > > I think speaking for most domestic owners, interiors are the last thing we look at, i personally like a domestic that looks clean as hell, has a great sound to it and is violent feeling…import owners seem to have a different view, and thats cool, but i dont get it lol i like going fast, but honestly man for 120k. the interior should be worthy of the price tag also. for 120k a Porsche turbo isnt far away, and as far as aesthetics are concerned. the Porsche is much higher up on the food chain, and its performance is nothing short of great… ---
