    Default wish list :)

    dont know if this has ever been posted before but ohwell.

    we've all spent loads of cash on our cars, but if you had the money what would the first thing you'd buy for your car? could be anything you want.

    if i was off my p's i would buy an LS3 and supercharge it

    Do we have to spend the money on our own cars ? Or does this include purchasing new cars ?

    Damn =( since atm all I own is a 97 Excel whilst I'm saving for my elise I would have to do the following:

    Viewer descresion advised.

    EVO 4 motor swap with a 6spd custom lsd dog box, rebuilt stroked turboed with atleast 300kw atw, coilovers, swaybars,
    nice racing rims and a new sound system and interior, keep it looking shit on the outside so its a sleeper.

    I would never actually do this but if somebody threw me cash and said to do anything I want to my car that would be it.

    Doesn't the OP say 'first thing'? Implying one thing only? Everyone here seems to be posting a massive list.

    Anyway, first thing I would buy for my car would be the car itself, I'd pay it out so I didn't have to worry about money coming out of my account t every month.

    Just bought a canopy and outback drawers for the back of the hilux but if the cash permitted would've liked a lift kit and mabye performance chip, so that's mine for next time.

    Given an unlimited amount of money, it would have to be 2.5" roof chop and minitubs.
