Priorities

What are your priorities when building a performance car? There are multiple ways to measure the performance of a modern vehicle. Mark the ways that you will make yours timeless, then feel free to show off your timeless ride in the Timeless social group here at Camaro5.

Respect all cars. Love your own.

I want to see some discussion. Talk!

Voted engine, suspension, mids, highs.

If I were to put them in order, it would be suspension, engine, audio (mids/highs being equal on that). I come from a concert performance background in music - I prefer to have a nice musical balance, not just strong bass/rhythm.

Subs are nice, but only when used to layer the bass - it should permeate, but not overpower.

Just speaking from my own opinion here.

Middle Audio, Engine, Suspension, Exterior, and Exterior.

Are we talking about an overall performance car? Or just say a performance car that is mostly used for drags, or one that is used mostly for road courses?

what are your priorities. If you prefer drag racing over autocross, then suspension is less of an issue (though still needs to be addressed for a serious drag car)

Engine, suspension, and Exterior, engine dress up. Just some pics of my old Cobalt. The interior has to be good too though, the Cobalt had a good enough one! I miss this old car.

New

Upgraded to my taste

I don't usually go for alot of exterior upgrades, it really depends on what car it is..

Engine, suspension (Drivetrain) for me. Too many cars around here that are all show and no GO. I want mine to be ALL GO with stock show. Stock so I can keep it a sleeper
