The real question is, how much have I lost in selling my used parts from when I bought it new. I'm at atleast $700 in just that

Might as well chime in. Looking at @BRZZZZZZZZZZ I don't feel that bad. Sorry man.

Wheels+Tires: $2500 ($3500 if I count the winters, but those are a requirement in Canuckistan)
Suspension stuff: $500 (Only bushings and camber bolts so far)
Brakes: $1000 (Cooked a set of pads and rotors on my last track day of the season or this would be lower)
OFT + OFH: $1200 (Money well spent)
Sharkfin + Raceseng shift knob + OBDII stuff: $400

So, about $5600 so far.

Works out to about what I spend for my golf membership in a year, but most of this stuff will be amortized over the life of the car, so not a big deal.

I'm $2500 or so in between headers, full exhaust, OFT wheels, and a few other mods.

Everything that cheap that I want I pretty much just go out and buy.. It would have just been spent on another car or saved if not spent there.

CPA here. Becker is the way to go. I had to pay for mine myself, but I would spend the money again in a heartbeat because it focuses you in on exactly what you need to know to pass the exam.

Besides, who doesn't want to spend every evening with Peter Olinto?

You have no friends. You have no family. Peter Olinto is your only family.
