performance or show?
hey guys, i want to decide. i want a performace car that i can brag about ( atleast for a 6'er ). but im also considering pouring my money into looks, and making it a show car. what do you guys think? please give me your thoughts and suggestions
Looks should be minimal right now. I've done 2 appearance mods. Don't get too crazy with appearance before you start adding to the engine. The Mach1 chin spoiler will be my last appearance mod before I at least get to 250 hp.
Personal preference is dead on man!
I like a nice looking car simply because my car was bought for top-down cruising. It's a vacation and pretty-day car only (exactly why I bought a 6er...gas, ins.,gas, price, gas), so a lotta go fast stuff kinda goes against my purpose for getting the car. Although I am saving my pennies for a hot rod project car. Also, I would never get in a 300+ hp vehicle with my wife at the wheel.
True dual flowmaster 40's (triple chamber)
CAI (K&N)
Mach 1 chin spoiler (not Pictured)
Ford bug shield (not pictured)
17" chrome cobra r (245/45)
232 decklid emblem
to come:
14 turbonators
speed holes (many, many speed holes)
and an ECU program I'm working on that will give 6 more "virtual" cylinders
maybe a 47" lift kit so's I can just climb right over all the ricers 'round here

I like nice looking cars that are fast, but not nice looking cars that are slow. Catch my drift? I hate cars that look soooo good on the outside, but in reality they're slow as *****. So my opinion would be to go for performance mods right now, then go for looks afterwards.
Sorry if that confused you.
