I have RD Sport springs on mine along with 15mm spacers. Love the car, but be careful. I made my 8 year old puke last weekend in it.

when you have it on(lit) you should notice that the car...for lack of a better word is twitchier...more responsive to throttle.

as far as mods go...you need to ask yourself what kind of mods???
go fast/handle better/brake better???
or exterior/esthtetic mods???...

if it is the former.....also ask yourself if you plan on tracking the car at all....
but more than anything first....drive it for awhile bone stock to see what you like and what you dont like....and then go from there....don't mod it for the sake of modding it without a plan....you will save yourself a bunch of money and aggravation.
Regards

Congrats.

There are many things you can do to the car, most start with the basics. intake, exhaust, suspension, wheels.

If you need help pricing any of the above let me know and I would be happy to help.

Post some pictures when you get a chance.

Regards
Jon

The car is super. I'm a former GT3 owner, this is no GT3, but for a road car that you can take to the track, its unbeatable.

The car needs to be lowered, I'd like a bit more aggressive but not obnoxious exhaust, more power would be nice but not first on the list. Set of track tires and wheels are a must.
