Default 2015 370 Black Cherry

Just got my new ride and have been searching and reading as much as I can before making my first post.
Bought a base without the sport package.
This leaves me with these shortcomings of the car:

Cloth seats instead of leather.
A set of Clazzio covers will solve that and I can replace them every few years as they wear. Try that with the OEM leather seats.
No LSD.
The OEM LSD is a viscous type which in my opinion is worthless unless your in the snow. From what I understand they lock up under hard driving.
Installing a Quaife will solve this.
Marginal factory stereo.
I don't know how good the OEM Nav is but I can buy an aftermarket unit that will be more than adequate if not better than that unit.

I have yet to read up on a decent cat back system and intake but would welcome some opinions if not at least some recommendations on links I could read on the subject.

I previously owned a Honda S2000, and while the 370 doesn't handle quite as well it has MANY other advantages of the Honda and it looks killer!
I have had it four two days and have had at least 4 people comment on how sharp it is!!

Forgot to mention that my car also does not have the SynchroRev Match.
And thank god for that!! That just takes the skill out of driving a stick shift, if you want to keep the revs up learn how to do it yourself. Might as well get a paddle shifter!!!

the picture you used for your avatar might not be the correct file type. Also, it might just be me or the pictures, but your Z looks like midnight black to me

I got a base because I knew there would be no reason in the sport because by the time I was done with mods nothing would be left ! Although the lazy man heel/toe would be nice on occasion!
