ITS HULK FRIDAY!!! People that spend too much on a falcon?

[HULK_I6T]

After another hard week at work, there's one last thing to do before your home n hosed in weekend mode... You need to settle the hulk Friday issue!!... Nothing eases you into the weekend and takes your mind off things like hulk Friday does.. So here we go

We all saw the last FG GT351 go under the hammer and sold for $236000... Money goes to charity, great cause.. I have no doubt the owner knows he basically donated $160k to charity and bought a car for $76000.. We can all accept that as good form. When it comes to sell he will know the money he has donated. Congratulations to the new owner, as it's for charity a great achievement.

But what about those that overcapitalise on falcons for non factory mods??.. Sometimes Spending the market value of the car many times over, usually to run quick times down the quarter mile. Is this a very narrow minded view as they are basically ignoring the better cars they can buy for the money?

Further Many choose to heavily modify a GT or a tickford car and really reduce their value as future buyers are not interested in highly modified cars, modified flagship models are usually considered as molestered.

Also at the end if the day, they will just be a falcon no matter what you spend on them, go try and trade them in afterwoods.

Where do you draw the line? We all love modding our cars but to different degrees? But what is appropriate? I think spending anything more than 50% of the market value of a car on mods is getting a little ridiculous. It's probably the point where your spending too much.

Do we need to stop living under a shell and first look at what other cars can be had for the total intended spend? (If excessive spend is planned)
