Well, I have about $3500 worth of turbo kit waiting to get slapped on my coupe. No money and no time to start the project.

1. Put more gas in tank
2. Oil Change
3. Vacuum
4. Wash/wax
5. New air freshener (if funds allow)

Next year it might get a paint refresh, different mufflers, and maybe a minor upgrade or two (I'd really like a set of upper/lower control arms with battle boxes and/or an Explorer intake), but I doubt even that much will happen.

EDIT: This, of course, assumes that nothing breaks or craps out before the end of the year.

Nothing, put a cover on it and push it to the side. For the first time since I have had the car I want to be able to get in it and drive it the first nice spring day.

1) Pull the engine for the 3rd time! fill and paint the engine bay the same color as the car. Not looking forward to this!!!

2) Some sort of Nitrous kit.

3) All new suspension for the front

4) 18x10's in the rear with 295's if funds permit.
