I also plan to keep this car for a while. I paid 17.5k cash and I have almost put that much in it since. I will never get my money back but I have enjoyed the build. Cant wait to finish so I can enjoy the ridiculous investment.

Got to Refer new members and know when to quit with Rock paper scissors. I just played for like 15 mins and won 400 credits...lol
