I have things I was going to change but remains to be seen if the car will sit still long enough for me to do them! I will say the not since the early 1960's have vehicles been built to pure engineer and designer vision, once all the regulations began getting in the way. Our exhausts for instance were not designed for best performance, but for best petformance at a given decibel limit.

 So far I've not felt the need for performance improvements on mine. I'll probably add spinners and I'd like a new steering wheel. The cocomats look nice, might opt for those. Otherwise, Very happy with mine stock.

Beyond the sealing off of the interior and the steering wheel you mentioned above, were there any other minor things like that that you've done to it? Seems like the sealing of the interior is just a common sense modification, and not really any departure from stock. Just curious as to if anything else was done that I missed in the threads.
5800 in a year averages out to just shy of 16 miles a day. Any long distance drives of note in there?
