I do believe the amount of greenbacks you spent on your S62 could bankrupt a small country.

Impressive. I didn't realize that we were in a competition or that this had anything to do with a GM engine.

Also, mine is not even close to its limit

You really don't even want to start to try to compare price or, more importantly, value.

So you were that little kid in school that made fun/picked on others because he was better, but once he lost in that game, he moved onto the next.

Makes sense.

More impressive. Psychoanalysis doesn't appear to be your strong suit.

Do you have the bill from D/A for the original built for your car?
My jaw dropped when someone told me what it was.

I don't have those receipts, but I know what it roughly cost. That is why I bought it used from Josh.
