I'll be buying a new 09 gts (cvt) soon, and I was wondering what are some important upgrades or modifications to this car that you would recommend? Also, if you can mention the time frame you would suggest performing these modifications (eg as soon as you buy it or after 20k miles etc) and estimated cost, difficulty and how long to perform the upgrade. Thanks for your help!

 

Get a manual. I hear they CVT could be better, few owners wish they didnt go for it and you can save some money.

 

um.... it all depend on your style.... Do you want a turbo..?? or just to dress up...!?

if you want more performance and looking to install a turbo later on.... just go for the Ralliart.... it actually worth the money...

if you only want to dress up.... there no such thing as essential modifications.... it's all subjective....
