What parts to choose next? Options

[CAMAricer]

Hi guys,

So I'm getting a bit tired of pouring money into my ST (just dropped $1.5k on a sound system, and still not satisfied). After all the $$$ that I've put into her, I realize that I still need probably another 20K to make her "perfect". The list just goes on and on...damn, so many choices! What to do!?!

Blah, enough of my whining. Anyways, on to the point of this thread.

So what do guys think I should do next? I'm only going to spend another $3000 max on my car (I say that now, but...). So of the following choices, which do you think should me the "final" upgrade on my Cecilia?

1) Engine swap (yeah, I know it'll end up costing me more than 3K... )
2) Redo my exterior (new paint, carbon hatch, fix all dings/dents/rust, neons lights)
3) Redo my interior (sparco seats, racing steering wheel, car computer)
4) Performance upgrades: lowering springs, strut bars, rear brake conv, big brake kit, projectors, and exhaust system...also going to be >3K

Damn...she's gonna end up costing me more than a freakin' Supra!

wow you have a tiny house if you spent less than $45,000

Compared to the houses I have seen in the States...Yes its very small, I have seen bigger appartments, but I bought it years ago when there was a slump in the housing market...and I was a student at the time so didnt have alot of money....Its probably worth about £70,000 ($140,000) now, but even that isnt alot of money these days...You have to make do with what you can afford, I didnt fancy having loads of unmanagable debt...the next house will be bigger (I hope)...and if I`m lucky it will even have a garage

I totally understand that POV. Coming from being a student there isn't much you can afford.
but man $45k......wow....even $140k....I wish things where that cheap here

Yea but the houses you have over there are 100x nicer than the houses we get over here....$500,000 would buy you a normal ish house, 3 bedrooms living room etc etc etc a bit of a garden and a small garage...thats it.....$500,000 over there gets a huge house (compared to UK houses) probably with a Pool...depending where you live and a good sized garden...at least it did last time I looked at houses in the USA.

I guess I was lucky to get a cheap house as the previous owners were getting divorced and just wanted to get rid of it......lucky me, anyway..a little off topic....sorry.......and now back on topic

huge house?!
how about a townhouse....

a good place here is min. $700+, but then again I live in a nice area + top 3 county in the USA
