I have had my 2000 MN6 Coupe since 8-22-05. My mods to date are modest, Mostly Exterior and Interior bling, Corsa Touring exhaust, Z06 airbox, K&N filter, etc. Welcome to the forum. It is a wealth of info for our cars! Do you own research to back up suggestions you will find here and you will do well. Again, welcome to the forum!

Welcome to the forum. Check out the audio/electronics section of the forum - probably some very good ideas there.
