Re: Show Quality Vs Performance
if its non turbo, i would go for show also. Too much money to make it to a performance car.

Re: Show Quality Vs Performance
of course, a car that looks fast and isn't is a disgrace.

Re: Show Quality Vs Performance
go for show, but get some basic performace upgrades. like at least a short ram intake, and a cat back exhuast. It seems you are already going the show route anyways with the body kit and spoiler etc.
a GS is never going to be fast with out dumping a ton of money on a turbo. then who cares if you car's fast if it looks like crap
