It seems if you have the coin to spend $1K/wheel you can pretty much get what you want.
I hear ya, that's exactly why I want another set, to keep my originals!

And Vossen wheels would be sweet, I have a thing for them! Truth is though, I could never drop $1k on a single rims. Too pricey for me. Heck, I'd have trouble spending $1,500 for all four!!! haha

Might as well step up to 11". Especially if you're going for power adders in the future.

The 2011 vert is the victim of the top issues (didn't you go through that as well??) and GM is buying it back. In fact it should be gone within a couple of weeks.

We went with the vert, hurst shifter & satin fuel door cover. Nothing much more than that at this point. Heehee. Hubby wants to put the ground effects on it. A good friend of ours just bought a 45th and has the ground effects and I'm so on the fence!!

We're just praying that the dealership will be dealing with the '11 long enough for us to have time to swap the lighting out without any issues.

Darn, sorry to hear about the troubles with the top. :(

Hopefully this convertible will be better!

Ground effects sound very nice! I think they look great and I would've loved them!

And the lights look great! I'm sure they'll look sweet on the 45th!!!
