Well, by late '07, I'd saved up more funds to dump into the car, so she got some S5 tails, a proper coat of paint, and some decent if inexpensive wheels and tires. I also picked up a few little accessories, like a Racing Beat strut tower brace, and a cone air filter.
The car saw a few pulls on the drag strip, and ran mid-17s at best. (FYI, I don't particularly care about drag times, but at least it's something of a measuring stick of straight-line performance, for a car that's not built for that.)
