I've spent maybe 50 dollars on my SVT since last July when i got her

two tail light bulbs, a bottle of coolant, new foglight bulbs and windshield washer fluid...

Now my SE on the other hand

i'd say 2000 or a little less, a couple water pumps, new waterpump housing, parking brake cable, thermostat, dexcool/water wetter, air filter, spark plugs, wires, battery, 4 new 02 sensors, new IAC, misc hoses, tranny flush with mobil 1/cocktail, new pre cat, UIM/LIM cleaning, throttle body cleaned, new rubber (yokohamas)... damn no wonder it's faster than my SVT... i've yet to do any maintainence on my SVT execept for mobil 1/cocktail in the tranny and oil changes

plus it needs a new IMRC
