just upgraded to a 4th gen...whoooohooooo

hey all
my 92 gxe died on me for good a couple weeks ago (190,000) and i just purchased a champagne 98 gle w 90k. its got tan leather, bose, sunroof, power everything, every option basically.. all maintenance checked out, it was bought from a good friend of the family. one owner, never abused, raced, or anything like that. the car is in absolutely perfect condition. i just ordered some DC clears for the front, and im gonna tint the windows as soon as i pick up the car on wednesday or thursday. and of course, my 17s will go on after the winter.
just felt like sharing my excitement at upgrading to a newer generation max.. what are peoples suggestions for fairly inexpensive stuff i could do for now.. i dont wanna get too crazy into modding right away, as i am a college student on a budget, but its pretty exciting to now have a 4th gen, which has much more stuff available for it than a 3rd gen gxe... any ideas people... im not as much concerned with performance as i am with looks, since i dont really race or anything..... thanks

Gratz on your new 4th gen. Like the body eh? Anyways slap some diamond cut clears and red/clear tails on that puppy right away! When you get around to it add a stillen kit as well..makes the 4th gen look amazing.

i actually get the car when i go home this weekend from school, and i only drove it for about 5 minutes at the dealership. my 3rd gen had rims and a strut bar so it actually seemed to have cornered a little tighter than this 4th gen did. ill be putting my wheels on it after the winter and i plan on getting an fstb so well see after that. i paid 8000, and yes, its an auto.
