I know!!! Toyota HQ is literally right around the corner from my office too. I basically want to add all of aFe's and AMS' catalog to a white one!

It's like a combination between my S2000 and EVOs.

My mods have mostly been performance use as for me this is a track car. Getting close to where I want to be. No significant engine mods until out of warranty for me.

Harness bar with Scroth ASM harnesses
AP Racing Brakes
AMT camber bolts
MCS or JRI 2 way coilovers (have both, need to decide what I will keep)
AFE sways
Eibach adjustable endlinks
VT forged track wheels (18/19) with Nankang AR-1 tires

ARH headers
Haltech intake
Corsa valved exhaust

Verus side skirts
ACS 1VM splitter
Paragon tow hooks
blacked out roof and A-pillars
PPF on front of car

I love that you guys have made your car your own! Very neat and personal! After dumping tons of money into mods on prior cars I went cold Turkey. I do few mods beyond tint. One corvette I had $15k in mods and every dealer wanted the car stock when I traded it

all the performance mods were great. The day I threw on headers I was shocked about the boasting performance.

mod on!

My list is not all checked off, but I have grown tired of the corvette tax, and am just buying time until the things I want go one sale or get deeply discounted.

Also watching the Z06 market while waiting to see what the ZR1 is all about and for how much.

Bought my 23 slightly used (1800 miles) with PPF, ceramic treatment, forged wheels, splitter and spoiler.

I just needed to ad side skirts, a little carbon fiber trim and a Uniden 8 radar detector. Done.
