Think about it, whatever job you have now that's helping you with these mods.. You may not have next month, 2 months, 4 years from now.. What happens when you have 1k in bills to pay for a month and lose the job? You lose the house.. What happens when you lose your job and have a boosted Focus? Take the insurance off and park it, and ride the bus till you get a job..
Buy a house.. What the f***, yeah, sure, it's a good business move if you don't want to have fun, or, you know, have something you'll NEVER own..
Have fun with your Focus dude, the "but it's a cheap car.." argument is also ridiculous, "Oh it's just a Honda.." Potentially with 500 hp that can smoke near anything.. Yeah.. "Oh it's just a Mustang" but with less money overall into it, it can beat your 100,000 dollar car.. "Oh it's just a viper.." Sorry it isn't a McLaren F1..
It's just a WRX.. it's just an EVO..
Isn't modifying what you have, what you like, what you enjoy.. the hole point of being an enthusiast? Isn't making something your own - be that putting a big stereo, nice rims, a body kit, nice paint job.. Or even just taking great care of your current paint job.. What being a true enthusiast is all about?
Come on guys, sometimes these cars are more to people than commuting pieces of metal, sometimes they're things we enjoy sinking money into.. Things we enjoy spending 6 hours buffing, polishing, waxing..
To certain people, it isn't about destination to destination, it's the ride in between..

the first part of your argument makes no sense at all. If you think buying/owning a house is a waste of money, then you've got ALOT to learn .. as meford4u mentioned, you (almost) never loose money when you buy a house .. its probably the biggest purchase you'll ever make, and bring you the most return
you say not to buy a house because theres a *chance* you might loose your job and then you'd be stuck trying to cover the bills ... that's a sad excuse .. i don't think there's one person that can say they are 100% secure in there job for the rest of there life
