This is around the number I came to. My sister who is a major gear head and I were talking about this last nite, is it worth it. Is it worth putting 10k into a car and make it mine style wise and get minimal performance gains. I had a Boxster in 2010 and I would say it is the same driving experience "fun" wise. I am amazed the way I can throw the BRZ around and the way it reacts to my input. The power is a different story but I knew that there would be a big difference between 200 hp (est) and 300 hp. I'm torn, I want to love the BRZ but to do so would end up costing me what I can get into a more performance oriented car like a low miles Lotus, a newer Boxster or 08-10 Cayman. Only thing I think I decided to do was pay off the BRZ in 18-24 months while making some mild changes to the car for now and see how I feel about it when its paid off.

Also dipped my stock wheels yesterday. The car is on Eibach Sportlines with wheel spacers. 20mm front, 25mm rear.

Does Diode Dynamics sell the interior lights as well? They sent me a 10% discount code with my fog light order. I'm thinking of using it exactly for the interior lights.
