I love my T but the only thing I don't like is the fact that there are so bloody many of them on the road. I want it to look different without being "Wow look at me!".

If that is your main concern ( being just one of the crowd) why not just get a Force 6? Not too many of them on the road so it is a rather unique ride and it is hardly a car that screams 'LOOK AT ME'. I have yet to see one anywhere other than the showroom floor actually.

I went for looks first but when I got beaten by a SS in my stock T, I didn't hesitate one bit and started modding straightaway. I have since been doing 50% of each.

For me there's no point in just having the looks. I feel these Beasts DEFINATELY need the Power to be backed up or else the looks are meaningless!! With both of these, you'll have the ultimate car. It the Best of both worlds really.

If I had 70k I wouldn't be wasting it on a force 6, I'd get a R34 GTR. :buttrock:

Despite most of you guys going for power after weighing it up I decided to go for looks first up. Early in the new year I'll be gettin a dark tint, lowered (SSL rear and SL front) HP Jet 19's, debadged and despoliered, stereo install (XBOX, XPLOD 12 inch, XPLOD 5 by 7's and 6 inch splits) Custom plates (don't ask cause I won't tell yet) a mabey black altezza lights.

The reason why I've chosen looks over power is because the T will only be a daily driver for another year or so then she's coming off the road for a massive overhaul and power increase. I think this is a better way to go rather than trying to do power increases on a buget and things going wrong as a result.

Early next year my ROH 18's will be for sale as well a my VL but I will let you know when the time comes, thanks for your input anyways.

When I actually get my T, I've already planned the order of mods.

1. Power

2. Brakes and Suspension

3. Looks and Sound

I figure that once power and handling are covered, the looks may also need to be functional not purely styling. e.g. FPV front bar for more airflow, vented bonnet, Bigger rims to allow for bigger brakes.
