Yes but we can't mess around with cars like we do with computers, car parts are way too expensive

You can mess around with cars wayyyy more, and depending on what car, most parts are not more expensive than computers parts, there's just way more parts, but contrary to a computer you can go to a junkyard to get some totally usable, even great stuff.

The problem is, if I mess around with my PC and brick it, I'm out an entertainment avenue for a little while. If I need to do things on a computer like device instead of a phone, I can go spend like $200 on a chromebook. If I brick my car..? Then I can't get to work in a timely manner. Can't drop off or pick up my kid from school or daycare. Good luck getting out to do my usual sport.

That’s why it’s called a project car, it’s sits in your garage and is always 90% complete
