Just a thought.....
im guessing that for most people on this forum, you can tell who owns there car, against those who have it on lease or is a company car.....by......the mods they have done.
if you dont own it, why would you spend out on big bucks?
am i wrong?

These parts sell like wildfire if people are getting rid of the car. You want the mods now...and a few years later part ways with them. Many people get a lot of their money back for these parts. I own my car but I will definetly be leasing from now on. I dont keep cars for more then 3 years anyway ya know? Ill do my mods then take them out and sell them.

call him that.. cause he is.. period.. i think alot of us lease.. and those that do.. we still do mods.. with some limits, but you can always sell anything youve done to your car right here and get most of your money back..
