Do I have this right--you purchased a brand new $25,000 car that you think is "so blaaugh?"
Dare I ask why? Financed for 5 years?
On a more constructive note, one thing to keep in mind in your modifications: one man's "pimping" is most others' "substantial reduction in resale value." If however you're a cradle to grave owner (i.e. you are going to realistically drive it till it dies), go nuts. Pimp away!
