Question Where would you spend?

If you came into some money would you spend it on performance parts, exterior parts or on the interior/electronics?

Obviously this is theoretical because the wife would take all the money for something else.

I'd start with sound - a surround sound system at home. :-) I'm pretty happy with the car as it is.

Interior. You're in the car, not outside. So make it a nice place to be.

I'd buy a million shares of Lucent because Kramer is bullish on the stock.

tires, suspension, lightened flywheel, and then some engine performance stuff. It'd try to reduce weight with some replacement components.

I'd invest in a coffee-table book about coffee-tables (that folds out *into* a coffee-table), because Kramer is bullish on the idea.

Performance=Suspension...the best bang for the buck and it can transform the car, one of the few mods that really makes a difference without potential headaches.
