      How much $ do you have into your ride?

      I bought my Aveo in 2007 with 11,000mi for 8,400 and added cc and ac (which I don't use) for 1000. Ialso bought 80k mi touring tires for 250 bucks. K&n for $50, It now has 66,000 and nothing but oil changes every 9,000mi and gas. Total= $9700 ..I knewnothing about Aveo's and probably could have gotten a new one for close to that, but not with ac and cc. Happy with it too.

      190$ for the H&R springs,
      215$ for the shocks/struts,
      around $20 for the camber bolts (tossed those and went with original when one of the bolt heads sheared and the bolt backed out about 3/4 of an inch)
      around $400 for the painting supplies,
      $120 for the tint,
      $415 for the sound equipment,
      $190 for the clifford alarm w/remote start (refurbished from factory),

      $26 for the projection fog lights
      $142 for the blacked out OEM headlights,
      $70 for the Hella 500FF's fog/driving lights,
      $25 for the protective grille,
      around $32 for two sets of protective lens tint to protect from rock chips and such (clear then replaced with smoked),
      $46 for the replacement bulbs high/low H4 HIDs (6000k),
      $60 or so for the exterior LED strips,
      $750 for the brand new wheels and tires (OTD price),
      around $70 for the alignment,
      $616 for all four Ultra Racing bars shipped,
      $200 for the custom exhaust (including Twister muffler, piping, Magnaflow tip, and labor),

      around $14 for both shorty antennas (one broke while I was washing the car),

      I'm sure I'm forgetting a few things here and there, +/- $500 bucks for the little random stuff...

      So far I'm at $10,333 (+/-$500, more likely "+" than "-"). Plus gas and such... and countless hours to install that stuff as it got here...

      As a matter of fact I'm selling it on the local craigslist for $9,000 to see if I get any responses, if anyone is intersted - let me know... I'd rather sell it to someone who'll appreciate it.

      i dont know what svm means. it is a stripped car, but cars are generally cheaper when you by them around certain holidays, like memorial day.

      crank windows, no a/c but i can call onstar to unlock the doors!

      i really confused my salesman when he was telling me all the benefits of onstar and i said "if it doesnt have power doors how do they unlock it?" we then asked them to unlock it from the parking lot.. they insisted they did.
