In some regards, I have the most fun with my near stock SVT Focus rather than my heavily modified ZX3 (when I owned it) or my nothing-stock Mustang. So far, my extreamly modified Mustang has not driven more than 10 miles all year. So many parts needing tuning, I spend all my weekends working on it and never driving it. I have 4 Saturday's invensted in just trying to bumpsteer the damn thing, which the vast majority of "kidz" don't even understand what that is. More parts, the more tuning, the less time you spend driving it and having fun with it. This current "pimp-my-ride" generation thinks that a bunch of parts makes a nice car. I have invested more money in parts in the last year on my Mustang than I spent buying my ZX3 brand new in 2000.

If you want my opinion, keep your car and go autocross it. You will find that you will enjoy your car more if you do something with it.
