Is it broken? I'd paint it hot pink and get 22" chrome spinners for it. Maybe throw on a set of mud tires, too.

Are you looking to mod it? Are you looking to just to cosmetic things to it?

sell it, or very quickly realize that it'll never be any faster than it already is and move on with your life

Sell it and buy a 1.8T quattro.

Honestly, you have a nice car. The first thing to is maintenance.

Swap out all the fluids, oil, transmission, differentials. Put in fresh Pentosin 11S in the power steering.

When was the timing belt changed and how many miles on the car?
