Default The S2000 as a Grand Touring Car

I've been doing some thinking, and I think I've probably got the best "S2000 GT" setup.

- Gobs of power (and grunt) with a turbo kit
- With the exception of my aftermarket wheels, a 100% OEM look - I may go back to the OEM wheels to complete the look.
- Great electronics for long distance trips: A kicking stereo system and navigation

I can think of one other thing that would add to the Gran Turismo experience:
- A hard top

What else?

mattg - w/ nav, don't need a road map, but thanks

Driv - I have old-school French flying goggles (I actually use them when I fly ultralights), but this isn't a Stutz Bearcat. Are you talking straight up cop sunglasses?

Phoenix - point well taken, I'm gonna check out that sound deadening thread I saw . .

Driv, I'll take that under advisement - mirrored or non-mirrored?

Hmm, mirrored is pimp. Definately mirrored. I guess you could go Cartman style and have the canyon/sunset painted on the fronts too! Theeere ya go, you'd be pimpin' like that.

Alright, I'll get a couple of pair of glasses and my goggles and post them and we can do a vote...
