Wishlist
So what does everybody not have for their car that they want?
I think this is my wishlist entire, but I reserve the right to append my list after I see all of yours':
:: Vararam
:: --I don't know what cams or headers are, but if I did, possibly those?--
:: this
:: replace the lights in the cabin--I don't know the proper name, but the ones in the dash and on the door panels--with blue (or darklight if available) colored LEDs
:: Darklight underglow (I really like theRadioFlyer's)
:: Different rims, not really sure which ones, probably powdercoated entirely black
:: change out the forward headlamps for something that actually lets me see in the dark
I know I do want to leave the car naturally aspirated, particularly because I want her to live a long and bountiful life. Might think about exchanging exhausts, but I'm perfectly content with stock and I don't know about the pretty manifold beautifier I want fitting custom jobs. There is some potential for the addition of a spoiler.

I'm sure there's more

hmm.. What I plan to do in 2008:
GPS (probably Garmin 660 or so) + mount
CAI + headers and xpipe and tune
HID lights - If I had talent I would do what radioflyer did to his.. but as I don't I'll be getting a HID kit!
2009:
18" front and 19" rear wheels
Other stuff I'm just going to do as I get time:
Paint calipers (Black or red but leaning towards black)
fix the radio bezel - for some reason the upper right side appears to have a broken clip as it does not pull in like the left top side does.
Stripes - get a classc1 (i think that's the one) in graphite - should look cool on the black car!
