Like others have said ask the missus. I had a datto 1600 supercharged, cage, harneses etc.. (the one that got away lol) and she used to complain about my devotion to that. Now i have the EB she doesnt even bother complaining anymore its a lost cause lol.

Ditto. They're a nice cruizing car for the open road, and great value for money.
I maintain mine well, just like I have any car I've owned.
But the I6 falcon is a family car not a sports car. I'm keeping all mechanicals stock, just servicing them and replacing with aftermarket parts if there's little different in price. eg discs are stuffed, might get slotted discs and better than standard pads, but that kind of thing is the limit to my mods.
If I wanted power I'd save up for a BA XR6T, and spend time modding that. In fact a few years down the track I probably will.
