I wouldnt trade. Most of the fun in the hobby is the proccess of building the car up.

Theres a feeling of immense satisfaction when people ask you where you got the work done at and you reply "I did it myself". Theres also a level of respect that to be had by building your own car.

For example, I couldnt own a Viper. Whats the fun in owning a car that can dust anything on the streets right out of the box, no work, no wrenches turned, just take the key from the sales man, head out the dealership and procced to pummel. Well at least thats my screwed up opinion.
