That modern look....

I went for both....nothing better than a good handling car that looks good as well.

I guess it's up to what you value more. If your mechanical then you want the car to run and handle well first and foremost.

If your artistic then you want the car to look good first and work on performance and handling after the fact.

If your an impatient bastage then you tear it all apart and do it all at one time....or over 5 years as I did.

All that really matters is what you want to do and what makes you happy...:D
