Im sitting here thinking what I want to buy myself for Christmas, well actually my camaro. Im going to limit my self to $1,400.

I was thinking black Rims http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/20x9-...ht_1855wt_1167

MagnaFlow 16483

Barton Shifter

Audio system from ********

Coil overs

CAI/Tune

Cant decide, appearance or performance first..

Any other ideas?

Black on black 2SS RS, manual trans.

you can paint the rims by a profession body shop , it would look just as good as those on ebay. if you are going to spend that much get a exhaust would sound sick. the rims painted would cost 500$

As for the rims, I know I can get them powdercoated, just the problem would be that I would be without the rims for 2-3 days=no car, I cant have that.

Just a thought, but maybe share your good fortune and give some to a Christmas charity?

I would buy the VIN matching lambskin leather aviator jacket like I did for my wife. Before they are all gone.

Heres what i think. The rims are a waist of $$ you can get yours black powder coated for a lot cheaper. The exhaust you chose is a waist of $$ being that it is really nothing more then a muffler delete, so no real performance gains are achieved. So you would be better off getting the cheapest muffler delete you can find because it will basically sound the same.
Performance first! Its better of to look stock and be faster then it is to look fast and be stock.
So off your list with your budget I'd go with the CAI/Tune, Barton shifter, and a cheap muffler delete.. You could probably do all 3 with your budget if done right.
Coilovers are generlly over 2k and audio system? Really? :updown:

MoranoRacing · 12-13-2009, 09:27 PM

I would go with a an exhaust, cold air intake kit, billet door sills, bowties, ud pulley, predator tuner, and some engine dress up items!
