Default bonus inhieritence

SO, I just inhierited a 2003 honda ex 2dr blue with tan interior, 15k miles. My sister (previous owner) graduated college and my father bought her a 2007 audi a4 with the s line package. So i ended up inhieriting her 2003 honda civic 2dr ex. its in great shape ( being that the fact thati maintained it). but anyway here the deal, my father who bought my others sister a car ( 2005 vw beetle) which was 21,995, but the way my dad tells how the price rantge will be for me, we go to the car dealer in this case vdub, and figure how much it is to get a new beetle with same options etc.... the price for a new beetle with all the options is about, 25,995, i kbb the civic and it is worth 13,995, so i can either keep the civic and have roughly 11k to do in up grades or, nvm ill have 11k in upgrades!!!! LOL anyway what would you guys suggest? i dont want anything to wild thinking, wheels tires, intake, exhaust, well not really sure pleasegive me some ideas sites and places to buy thanks in advance!

Take it to a respectable shop and hav them turbo that sucker. Get a nice set of Volks or Gram lights. Lower it. Get a lip kit. Theres so many things you could do with eleven G's it isnt even funny. I hate you haha

WTF 11k is a ton of money. Forget the VW, swap a JDM beast into your civic.

11k? Buy another civic and weld them together.

Wait... were you serious about buying a beetle?


I'd say, go all engine and buy the best of the best...


or swap in a corvette engine.

Take half of it and put it in a savings account with a nice interest rate and dont touch it till you are ready to buy a house. That way you will have a nice down payment.

Even better, put it into a roth IRA. Look into it.

Then take the other half and play with your car.

If you really want to dump all your money in your civic then
i would buy a K20R from an ITRthen supercharge it, this
should almost give you 300 hp.
