How much money do you put into a car?

think of it this way. If youre in it for the money. Youre already at a loss for getting into A bodies.
That aside, would you rather pay 60k on a brand new sports car and have a comfy ride that any joe with 60k could buy? Or do you wanna spend 30k on a car that noone has. you made it. and could even perform better than a car off the showroom floor? A car you know every inch from and can drive down the road knowing everyones staring and something you built and/or your design?
I know which one id choose.
