How much have you Spent on your Camry???

I saw this comment on another thread regarding Gen5 Turbo kits.

Only a few people have gone past $5,000 on their car (including myself) and I doubt someone with a Gen 5 is going to do that.

I'm not trying to take it out of context or anything like that, but I thought it would be cool if everyone could list their Camry modification total cost. So list the total cost of modifying your Camry. DO NOT INCLUDE regular maintenance! ONLY upgrades and modifications. Hell you can itemize if you like. I'll tally my costs and post them tommorrow. After reading that comment I realized I had no clue as to how much I've spent to date on my Cam. Time to break out the calculator.

I'd love to know how much Yukio's Gen 2 Camry costed him, even though most of them were probably sponsors.

Here's mine so far:

TRD Strut Bar - $201

Total = $251

And it will climb. I'm planning to spend only $3000 on it.

Future mods:

TRD Oil/Radiator Caps - $35
Injen Intake - $220
TRD Air Filter - $45
TRD Exhaust - $400

Think that's all I'm getting for my car. Not much engine mod. I want it clean.

Not to mention, I'm saving up for a 1991 MKIII Supra Turbo
All my money's going into that car. Over $6000 for sure. Most of it will be rebuilding engine probably, depending on the condition. And HKS Turbo system. PSSHHHH. It'll be a nice little project car.
