And eat all your greens, watch no TV as it rots your brain, and sit at home reading a good non fiction book. Fun is a sin.

I voted for suspension... Unless straight line only is your thing, a better handling car will outdo a higher HP car around a track and be safer on the road..

Dev 5. No questions asked. Keep it looking stock - AU XRs look great.

A unit? Doesnt anyone live in houses anymore?? Oh right - Sydney.

don't know what a dev is, i'll assume its a power package, but i'd go for suspension before power upgrade every time. tv's and dvd's are for when you get home.

Bodykit, bulge an rims. fairy nuff, give it plenty of horse and you enjoy it every time you go for a drive, but make it look sweet and you can still see where you spent your money without leaving the driveway.

I don't have that problem. I guess i don't have a P Plate in my window and the coppers always drag me off at the lights so they know its all show and no go.

I like the pretty look. You can only go as fast as the speed limit. So why not look the goods. The Falcon 6's go ok. Want it to go fast, buy an 8.
