2) You are old enough and in a position in life to modify a car the way you imagined when you were young. You blow all your money and realise you have a family and responsibilities and spending $50k on a $5k car is stupid unless you are a manchild still trying to impress 18yr olds. Then you part it out and go buy a new $50k sports car that has a warranty and is better in every way and less embarrassing than driving a shitbox 25yr old car.

OR you go out and buy a Z06 or GTR for $60K, still impress the 18yr olds but now fall into the midlife crisis crowd where they ask you to attend wine tasting and swinger parties.
