MI Gifting the Rx-8

Well I have had my Rx8 for about 3 or 4 months now and I am very happy with it thus far. I even had my first winter driving experience the other day in it without hitting anyone or stationary objects, although I can see I will be needing winter tires if it gets even slightly heavier than it was earlier this week. But I digress

My main point for this post is to get suggestions from all you fellow Rx-8 owners. I was asked what I would like for Christmas the other day and I have resolved to ask for something for the car. Now the car is only going to see one winter here in Michigan before I move back to Arizona this Spring/Summer so I am not going to be asking for winter tires (those Ill take care of myself). Any suggestions you guys have on somethings that are a lot of fun to have installed/bolted-on to the car? I was thinking a new mid-pipe w/ cat delete or a new cat back system, perhaps a new intake. I know if I get exhaust components I am going to wait to install them so they dont get eaten up by the salt on the roads.

What do you guys think?

The only gift I can think of is keeping the 8 nice & cozy in the garage as much as possible during this time of the year.

Other than that, I'm out of ideas lol.

If you have an android or iphone, ask for the Bluetooth OBD-II sensor so you can stream car data to your phone. You can get software pretty cheap from the market/store that will connect and give you some dashboard displays.
