Here's my 2 cents. If you have the $$$, go with the wheels and sup first. Other wise, go with the sup first as it can make the car look more aggressive and performs better. Besides, the stock C4S wheels are already pretty good.
Go with the wheels 2nd, then the rest of the other stuff.

I know I said "wheels first" previously, but BEFORE THAT I would get:

1. Exhaust/mufflers
2. Short shift.

These mods make a big difference to your driving experience - and can be appreciated from the driver´s seat all the time. Wheels and wings can only be seen from the outside... :-)

Lots of talk about lowering here. In Europe all C4S´s come with RoW M030 chassis as standard. Do yours come with the "high-ride" US-M030, or plain stock suspension?


habitat: I just love those Superleggeras!

Wow, that's awesome looking. Those rims would last about 5 minutes on the east coast before they got bent. So Trovan when are you giving Misha a call and getting a rear wing to complete the picture?

i got in touch with him for the x'mas sale they had. i thought i was going to do it for sure. but there is something about the rear of the C4S makes me fell in love with this car years ago. i was afraid a wing is going to take it way.

still debating........

nice rear
