What should I do to the M3?
I'm totally lost as to what direction I should go next. I'm making a lot of money over the summer (no license till the END of summer so it forces me to mod the car in a way.) Um..
Basically I can either make it "fast" or I can make it look extremily sexy haha. I'd almost rather go for looks, because they are a CONSTANT. The car can be parked and you can tell that it's hot.
On the other hand it sucks getting owned by fbodies and mustangs and shit (in a straight line mind you.) Um, so tell me exactly what I should do next! I'm thinking 5k to drop on it in early August.
edit: Perhaps my best option right now is a simple blower kit for 3500, make around 300 to the wheels, then put the rest into looks. New rims, painted trim (door trim, door handles, etc..) kerscher front lip with CF splitters.. ?

Use that 5,000 as money to race people like in that Drag Racing game I was playing. Start out racing civics and double up on your money quick, then start racing for pink slips. Go for injectors /chip /exhaust /intake /throttlebody /maf /supercharger/ supercharger pulleys/ high boost controller /suspension/ nitrous/ cam/ head work etc. Then start going to racing competitions and winning cars and selling them on the boards. Then buy a McLaren F1 and do the same. While drag racing for money. I know Paul Walker would do the exact same thing.
