Default That's not the question to ask

The questions to ask are Do I still enjoy this car? How could I/should I make it more fun? Do I really want something else? When the time comes that you no longer enjoy it for whatever reason want a change, then it's time. I've had 7 cars in the last 5 years including my A6 2.7T that I had for 3 of them.

Default Great question. I would say maybe...

I bought my mods used, at a fraction of their original cost. I only pay for them with cash. They can be removed for resale. My car depreciates faster than I can make the payments, so I do not spend money on new/expensive go faster parts. If something is worn out and a better aftermarket one is available, then I might go for it.

I mod my house. That is way more fun and actualy has an ROI associated with it.

Yes, just keep them tasteful & purposeful. Other than that, I'd prolly just stay statusquo.
