Spend my money for me! Help me decide!
say i have about $4500/5000 tops i would be looking to spend on a CL.
now i am currently looking at a 3.2CL-S 6speed that is S/C'ed...my problem is NO ONE is buying my car which needs to go for so many reasons before buying another car. i've tried word of mouth, websites, and for sale signs for the last year! my car went from me asking $13,500 to now 9500-10000. After spending $14k to get it, and 2000 on mods, i just can't and won't lower the price anymore, even if a 300WHP CL6 is on the line...i just can't afford that loss now at age 19 !
so if one was going to spend no more than 5000 on a CL-P which already has Comptech Headers and CAI, what would the list be?
i might as well keep my car until the wheels fall off since now its only at 76k. also, im just looking for a healthy power to weight ratio, nothing crazy [my opinion about 215-225+WHP]. what could help me get there in a CL-P? im about 190-192WHP with H/CAI now.
I always have trouble making up my mind on what to do...and i've been debating too long so i decided to finally post...
thanks for advice!

you guys can tell i would be leaning toward performance if my car really can't sell by this year...
i was thinking comptech axlebacks, ur crank pulleys, p2r plenums...
what else, i need ideas...doesn't have to be performance oriented...
just wanna make my final decision!: can i still be happy if i decide to just keep my car [which i love btw! CL FTMFW!!]?
and no another car that isn't a CL isn't an option til i can afford a real sportscar!
thanks again.
excelerate we'll be talking by end of summer if i decide on keeping

yeah i really dont get that either! you're right...i just want my car to feel a little lighter upon NORMAL EVERY DAY NON ABUSIVE NON HARD acceleration...i want my cars to last, so as not to spend money on something thats completely worthless.
thanks for the concern tho!! oh and nice 6speed FWD! coupe you got there!
hahah j/k, if you're stock, you got 215WHP...thats all i want...im a simple man.
300whp wouldn't be bad tho!
