To each their own... IMHO it's a matter of look @ what I bought as opposed to look at what I built. (Pretty much identical to the mindset of building your own PC as opposed to buying an Alienware... on more levels than just the system)

If all I cared about was driving the car, then sure, I'd pick something snazzy off the lot. Lord knows there are plenty of options from car manufacturers on all corners of the earth... But I'll have tons of fun with the wrench time with friends and family over many beers... plus the pride in putting the beast together and accomplishing something for yourself! [thumbup]

It's great when you do most of the work yourself [thumbup]

I also rather build a fast car than buy one that is fast stock...
