Let's take a vote. Which vehicles are worthy of upgrading/modifications? Performance, visual, etc. Let's see what you have to say.

Daily driver I think ought to be subject to mild mods only.
Like maybe tires one size up.. or bigger radiator and the like.
Maybe a Osiris uprev tune.

Vehicles intended for offroad or sports cars are different IMO and the sky is the limit there.

If a vehicle is good enough to attract me to buy it, I prefer to keep it as much factory original as parts availability allows. Tires? Black wall. skinny white wall or Wide white wall are dependent on market availability, so tires are a waffle on OEM appearance.

This is a stupid question. The answer is completely subjective. Any car can be worthy of modifying if someone likes it.

+1.

One thing for sure, I’m in the process of modding my daily driver. And its going to be costly. :inout:

Everything is worth modifying in some way typically.
Mitsubishi Mirage? Cut the roof off and hoon it.
Bugatti Veyron? Probably some heat exchangers and an oil filter relocation kit so it doesn't run you 9 grand for an oil change haha.
