    not really that out weigh the increase in fuel and insurance cost.

    I'd just start saving for a quicker car when you're older and can afford.

    lol i know what you mean dude but it's much cheaper easier in the long run to save up and upgrade the car.

    For instance if you jumped to a furio you'd notice much more than spending the difference in cost of both cars than spending the same on mods for your 1.1.
