Congratulations on your car - you will not be disappointed. It's awesome.

For me, the rims (depending on what you have already) then the exhaust to a sport exhaust. Lots to choose from and here's the place to find out about which one.

Post some pic's.

Good luck.

Colin

Ant,

Congrats on the new car! Definitely take a look at some wheels and suspension. I recommend the M030 setup if you don't want to go to low! Pics please!

Joe... ooops... sounds like your going fishing this weekend

Here is a tip for you... take the allen screw and the shifter to Home Depot, and get a smaller head screw that fits into the shifter.. The stcok screw has a big head, and isn't comfy! A smaller flatter head feels better when your holding the shifter

Thanks all. Im glad I found this forum. As for wheels, im in a dilema. The car came with 18 inch azev ls's. The dealer said i can exchange them with the porsche 11 spoke 2 peice wheels. I dont know what to do. These ls's are growing on me.

If you mean the 18" 2 peice Sport Designs, they are a 10 spoke wheel, I have them on the C4.
