New Owner from Albuquerque NM

Hey everyone, just got back from a deployment and my present to myself was a 2010 GT 5 speed. This is my first American car so I'm not sure what the community around it is. I come from a long line of European cars that were far better at going around corners than straightaways, and the forums were all local. The previous owner already threw an intake, axelback, and wheels on it so I'm looking to do the logical thing, and dump loads of $$$ under the hood lol.

Onto the goods

Thanks everyone. Any suggestions on first mods? I'd like to slowly build up to a high boost machine and I have no clue where to start, aside from a muffler delete and back seat removal that is, lol.

Cold air intake and tune is a great place to start. 4.10 gears are fantastic. Exhaust. Or just go super charger.

First thing I would do I'd get rid of the mossy oak floor mats. Not doing it for me lol.
