Help me spend some dough...
So I may have decided to stop being a tightwad and allow my self to spend $10k on something. But the question is what?
My wishlist in no particular order-
New suspension for the G - $1800
Motorcycle... haven't really decided on a model yet Ducati Supersport 800 maybe? $8000
Stillen Stage 2 SC with all of the trimmings. $8000
Membership to the Foundation Room. $3500 (it's a little snobbish but the view is awesome)
Nine group (Palms) VIP membership $3000 (nice place to visit, but it's so crowded on the weekends that you can barely get a drink)
Guns... lots of guns. (nuff said)
ADDED- 75 shot of Nitrous done right i.e. window switch, nitrous controller, purge, remote bottle opener etc. $3500
ADDED- Canon EOS 5d $3500
So help me out, what would you get? Anyone got anything to add to the list. Or should I just leave it in the bank where it belongs?

Suspension will make you just as fast on the track, and at autocross especially as the supercharger so I would get that first.
Motorcycles are really fun, but WAY too dangerous around Las Vegas. I have known 1 kid that died on one and another that lost his leg. Both accidents were not the rider's fault.
Stillen Stage 2 with the suspension is the way I would go, but thats just me.
Club memberships arent really my style. I get pissed when I have to pay a $20 cover, but whatever floats your boat...

The Nine Group membership sounds awesome. Get an MP5K (with 30-round mags), a Glock 18 or 18C (don't know if you can get either of them... class III weapons), and a long gun, preferably an 870 Marine Magnum with top folding stock & heat shield. Or an MV Agusta F4... mmmmm Agusta...

btw, I would go with supercharger and suspension... And if your willing to drive to Stillen in Irvine, i MIGHT beable to get a little bit of a discount (dont quote me on that though)
see... all of my hook ups are in Cali, i had to move here though.

I think that I've decided to put off the SC and to instead save up a downpayment for a GT-R. It's a long wait, but I get the feeling that it'll be worth it. This is the sketch that they are supposedly showing at this years Tokyo auto show.

Dang, that's a good point. The last report I read said that it's going to be rolled out in 2007. So does that mean as a 2007 model or 2008 model. Gonna have to do more research, I was thinking that I could get one by the end of '06.

So I finally decided to go with an EOS 1D MKII N I'm still a photographer at heart, and my Tein Flex with EDFC. I haven't ruled out the Stillen SC yet, but I may put it off for a couple of months.
