I wish I had money to do something off the chain... I was considering finding another F23 at the yard and going nuts on it, slowly...

Or swapping in a lower mileage F23 and going nuts on my current one.

When I dont have any debt and a higher cash flow, I will definitely be starting a project car. I really, really like the the look of the 6th gen and I fall in love with it more everyday, especially now that I have wheels again. TT F23 with superchargers, naws, and 9 BOVs???!!?!!?!? saweet!
