Modaholics!

Misindi coined a great new term!

Hello my name is Buddy and I am a Modaholic! It started simple enough with just a stereo and Fabspeed exhaust, then I found this website (the devil in disguise I think) 6speedonline, and I kept reading all these posts about Stage 2, Stage 3, Stage 4. These guys were having a riot with their cars and the MOD GODS starting to call my name.

Now I have a Stage 5 and I think it is incurable! Please someone help me!


MODAHOLIC!

Buddy, you need to start a Midwest chapter of Modaholics Anonymous, complete with a 12 step program to save your bank account!!!

We will recruit Ken (KPV) for the Northeast Chapter...

Tim,

Admitting you have a problem is the first step! I have admitted I have a problem but I am not sure I want to give up the bottle!

Step 1: We admitted we were powerless over modding and our bank accounts have become unmanageable!!!

I am actually thankful that I bought a C4S, and NOT a TT. Otherwise I would be in reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeal deep.

So far, I have been able to keep the mod-demons at bay...
er, ah, well - mostly, sort of

The worst part about being a Modaholic is that you can only go so far with a car until something else catch's your eye. Then you get your fix on the new car and the process my friend repeats itself over and over again!!! "At least that's the case with my disease" I mean it's only a matter of time before we are talking about stage? kit on our 997...then 998...so on an so forth

My wife is very supportive but lately I have been getting flack for blowing too much COIN....She feels that it is now a problem and not a hobby. I keep telling her that it is still hobby for me, just a very expensive "SHOW-OFF" hobby!!

How does your significant other feel about you and your addiction??
