Wow, I wish my FD's interior was as fresh when I got ahold of it - nice!

im 26, got my fd when i was 17-18 iirc. i currently work in IT at a large government defense contractor, but i'm going to school in computer science to switch over to programming. ive probably spent about $9k on my fd since i got it, so probably just over a grand per year (includes one engine and turbo kit rebuild)

I'm 20. Part time student and work full time in a parts store. I got my FD last year and have since dumped about $6k into it. I also have an FC that I've had since I was 15. I have about $18k in it. It's my barely street legal drift car

I'm 38 about to retire after 20 years in the Navy and looking for a new job now. Bought her in 2003 and have done a lot of maintenance to keep her going until I can get some good cash saved up to do some serious engine mods/new turbos.

46, but does it count that I bought my FC when I was 23...LOL! Yeah, kept her all these years, always wanted an FD when they first came out, but just couldn't justify the expense at the time when my FC was still in great shape. Barely see FC's around here anymore and FD's are virtually extinct in New England!

47, got my 93 FD new. Build date 6/92 so it just turned 20! 68K miles so far. Probably spent about $6G on it so far. Need to get it to Speed1 to fix some oil leaks, new clutch/seals/bearings etc.

This thread should be a required reading thread for all newbies and there should be a quiz at the end of all 600 posts.

I'm 26, got married last year, baby on the way. I gave been planning to buy an FD since I was younger, but only now does it seem feasible; now I'll actually have money, once I get my career underway.

29, Traveling sales for a manufacturer of Floor Grinding and Polishig equipment. Ive owned a couple FDs and ran a small rotary business for a while. Bought my first fd 10 years ago last month. It was love then and still is now. Funny how what I thought was the "perfect" fd was at age 19 compared to what I think is the "perfect" FD now is two total extreme differents.
