Wow! What resession? Everyone is talking about $10k turbos or just going out and buying a second car. I love my Z and may make some mods after my next deployment (plan to keep the Z until 2020 if gas is still availible). Do I wish that simple bolt-ons had more hp gains yes, but I'm not disappointed in what I get from the Z off the lot either.

I say the exact same thing every time I walk into a restaurant, "Wow look at all these people waiting in line, some recession!"

Or when I walk into an IMAX, "Wow look at all these people in here who $10+ for movie tickets, some recession!"

Just because we're in a recession doesn't mean you can't spend outside of your means, it's the American way!
