It seems like simple math to me; how much would it cost to supercharge your car and add the cervini's kit?

I love the CS and the Eleanor...to me it is just a matter of cash.

Keep the cs and make it your own. More satisfaction that way!

from your post it sounds like you're not just adding another weekend/toy car to your garage; in that case I wouldn't do it.

gt/cs is a good daily driver, but the cervinis kit car isn't for DD duties IMHO. for one, just imagine the adrenaline rush every time you scrape that low chin spoiler and/or side exhaust over speed bumps on parking lots...

I guess to me, it is more than just simple math, because I actually prefer the CS to the Eleanor, I mean the Cervinis kit looks good, but its not really my thing, so I'd rather do my car my way and not even calculate the cost, because if I did the Cervinis thing, I would have a car that I didnt really want in the first place, which is the position the current owner is in, dont get me wrong, it is an amazing car, but just not exactly what he or I want. Now that I've thought about it for a bit, thats my take on the situation.

The GT/CS sits in the garage unless it is nice out, I have an '05 F150 FX4 for DD duties.

If I wasn't gonna be stuck in Lubbock, TX for the next 4 years I'd fly straight to Canada and buy that Eleanor. That kit would never survive on these crappy roads.

But if you're not that into the kit then you have the right idea with keeping your CS.

You just answered your own question...
Keep your CS!
