Default General Question:How much $$ are you going to spend for xA?

Please be nice and don't lie ! hahah......

So what amount of money would you spend on your xa and how much did u already spend since you got it. Btw exclude trd rimz and stuff that came with the car. So only the amount that u already spend and u will spend

Example of ME:
I spend around 900$ so far on aftermarket parts: my afterarket rims and tires 700$ + short shift aand other paintings done to the car

I will spend probably another 2000$ for intake, body kit "some new 1 in future" .

Total:3000$ ca.

I know that over $2k has gone into my car so far. I don't have exact numbers cause i'm too lazy to calculate it..haha. I do plan on spending more though.

i didnt want to spend more than 1k on my xa but once you start you cant stop. Here is what Ive spent so far : $900 rims and tires, 250 springs and spacers, 250 cold air intake, 150 progress sway bars, 500 body kit, 300 sub and amp 300 misc....man i really can't believe i had already put over 2k yet my xa doesnt look modded. The parts for our cars are too expensive for what they are...i had a civic before the xa and parts were really cheap.

I've spent about $1100 on my xA, although I have about $2000 worth in parts. I'm probably gonna spend another $2000, then that's it... *shrug* Wheels/tires, struts, nitrous?

I don't have a XA yet, but building it often on Scion's site, options (keep in mind, dealer prices) pit me somewhere over a $1000.

I think eventually I might want seat covers or new seats. Rims naturally, and really who knows. I will try to price out stuff right, I'd put my future mods (after I get the car) in the $5000 range. Really, its a process, one step at a time.

I can't believe I'm at around 23 grand on a 12,500 car! Maybe I shoulda just bought two!

Oh Well. . . I plan on havin' my xA for a good long time, so it'll all cost out in the end!

I’m sure I’m up over 500 on mine so far…

I have a neon underbody kit “Street Glow” Gold Series (Purple) “I have the black cherry”
12” Sony Xplod
2 amps
In dash Monitor hooked up to a computer in the back that is my radio.

I’m dong some other work to it now.

Also I plan on getting some 17” rims for it this summer! I’m sure will be close to $1,000
