GotVett?

Trick question.

That's where all the fun begins. You buy a Vette and have the best sports car in America! I drove mine for a few months and loved it. Then went for some cosmetic upgrades: grill, side vents, VY add ons, rear spoiler... Loved every minute of it.

Then the speed bug bit: Corsa, headers, then a cam, then a blower... Wow, blew my mind, the power pastes a perma-grin every time you nail it.

Then interior upgrades: color matched console, mats, gauges... Love the look.

Then trick out the engine compartment: full out chrome, K & N, FRC's...

Next: sway bars, meth/water injection, 3.42 gears, tires...

I have never had so much fun!!! Take your time, enjoy the research and the journed. And keep us posted on your results.

No-no my friend. It's better to look good than to feel good!

Those with 700-800 HP.



To answer the OPs question......both of course. It's what mod sickness is all about.

I'm perfectly content with my 2005 coupe's performance. I've put a couple of grand into appearance tweaks, though.

Unfortunately I have been watching videos of Super Chargers, Exhaust, and looking at wheel shots of Vossen Rims sound and looks first, then maybe some muscle.

No wrong answer.

Unless you're a certain Q-Z06 owner.

I definitely know where my preferences lie but I think a lot has to do with how you use the car, what you desire and your financial wherewithal. After 3+ years my car's still a work in-progress. To whatever extent you want, there's no reason you can't do both. Whether you mod your car for track performance or appearance mods for a beauty pageant its all good.

The car has plenty of performance for me. I don't plan to take it to the track. But I do like to personalize the appearance.

Let's see. My mods are:
Homelink
Heads Up
Radar hardwire and mounting
About to drill holes in mufflers
Floor/Cargo Mats
Clear Top

These are definately not performance. Mats and Top are appearance. How do you categories the others?

I put DSVETTES center armrest and door armrest because my elbows would dig into the hard plastic OEM,

OOOh this is happening because I have a COW tune.

So its both for me.

RohanZ51

I added a AirRaid CAI and GM Bra and GM Splash Guards..car is perfect for me costs 500.00..money well spent

Bradl1982

Neither, after modding the hell out of my Camaro I had I decided to leave the Vette stock. It already looks great!

BradtheAg

when i finally find the right 06 or 07 i already have my mods planned out.

1) Z06 spyder repros
2) borla stingers or b&b bullets
3) stereo

but if i had to pick just one...i'd go exhaust. the car looks extremely cool already. hard to beat that sound though.

Being a non track guy with my vert it's all bling.

cmonkey713

At 400+ horsepower out of the box I would go with an appearance mod to set your car apart from the pack.

TEC6

Even though I have done mostly appearance mods to date...But then again, I take my vette to car shows and not the drag strip..

I do love my DMH exhaust cutouts....

From a Dealership perspective you have to determine what is your ultimate hold time for your Vette.
If it is a keeper -- do what ever engine mods you want. If you plan on upgrading to another Vette later, we would like to see as few engine mods as possible. We don't mind - cold air intake, exhaust and tune. But, when you get into the engine, it makes resale for us a bit harder.
From an exterior standpoint -- save original equipment. Sometimes the Vette is worth more going back to stock. Your idea of custom may not be the next buyers idea of what they want.
