At first I thought you meant make an SC WORTH $50k, I was going to say not possible. Nobody would pay $50,000 for any SC300 no matter what you do to it. Now that I read PUT $50k into it, I think it is quite possible and some are capable of doing it. I would be capable of doing it but I don't think I would, going back to the car wouldn't be WORTH $50k when I was done. Now, putting $50k into a 69 Camaro RS that is beat up would be worth it and I'm looking into doing that.

I could, and had couple Scs with high value parts.
Hell, My GS already costs me 30K+ on parts along.
But I changed my philosophy on modify cars, $$$ spent on modifing a car, shouldn't be over the value of the car itself. I hope I can stick to that!

Hmmm I dont think I can. I do spend alot of shoes clothes and just wasteing cash. 50k is alot of money to spend on a car and I think you can make a very awesome one without spending that much

Right at this very moment no I can't, although that's because I'm saving up to buy an apartment. Plus I'm only 23... can't expect too much money coming in now can I

i'd like to think i'm on my way to that point. for me the car is going to be kept with me for as long as possible. with that said, i've already spent ~18k on suspension and aesthetics alone... i've still yet to touch interior, brakes, engine and tranny.
