LOGIC? You seriously want to invoke logic in a conversation about fake hijackings, missiles hitting the pentagon, and bombs planted throughout the world trade center? I thought it was a given that logic was checked at the door when entering one of these threads.

This.

We've all 'been there' when we were kids. We got whatever kind of car we could afford and then wanted to soup it up. And the answer was usually the same.

Go with another car.

10,000 worth of parts, 7,000 worth of labor, tons of personal time and headache, you might as well buy a new car or get a bike -- that'd be way faster than a galant.

Just save your money for a car you can tastefully modify. Use this as your DD for now. You don't need to modify it. If you want to be a retard put some 20's on it, a huge ass spoiler wing, and a fart can muffler then go brag to the world that you are part of the mile high club.

don't give him any hope.

He will end up buying crap parts and just ricing out another galant. which i'm not sure if they look equal to or worse than standard ricey cars.
