How much was your c-4 & how much $ is in it now?
How much did you origionally pay for your c-4? How much do you have in it now? :confused: I know its a personal question but Im wondering if anyone else has spent an obscene amount of $ in mods like me? I paid $3800.00 for my 84 3 years ago....I now have (embarrassing) over $30,000.00 in it! :eek: :crazy: I know I could have a much newer one or even a real gs but I really love my car & hope to never have to part with it! :smash:

I got my 94 5 years ago for 24,000. Not much in mods, upgrades perhaps 2000-3000? :steering:

I would never want to add up the money spent on my corvette or fishing. These are my avocations and so financial aspects would only detract from the enjoyment. These are emotional purchases, not logical ones.
Anyone else agree with me?

Re: How much was your c-4 & how much $ is in it now? (brdd)
Bought my 93 two yrs ago, $13K, it's NOT for sale. Waited a long time for this toy, am planning on keeping it, unless some dolt offers me more than $15K for it. I see that as a no brainer, since I would have a better chance of bagging an elephant on the moon, than someone offering me that much for it. Yes, it's in GREAT shape, only a very few mods.
I enjoy driving it, and riding in it. it's comfortable and perfoms pretty well. I've had it on the track, turns good lap times..

I paid $16000 for my 92 3 1/2 years ago. I was doing okay, money wise, until I joined this forum. Now, I have a pile of receipts that I'm affraid to add up. Just this last project, headers,opti,wires,plugs,hoses,coolant pump, all the fluids and some new Vette only tools was .........I can't look :cry
But, I wouldn't have it any other way! :yesnod:
Hey I got an idea, Does anybody have a program that you can make your own window sticker so we could put all the add ons we've done to it with MSRP along side them? Talk about sticker shock :lolg: :rofl: :skep: :lol: :crazy: :D :lolg: :skep: :cry

Purchased my 89 Vert on 8/21/02 for $13,900.
Total of $500 into it:
$300 for water pump/labor
$200 for RF Sony CD changer. Wishing I pulled out the crappy Bose instead. :rolleyes:
I plan to spend some more! :crazy:
