Subject: 97 900S - upgrades ?


Hi We have a 97 900S w/ automatic, 4 year lease, 20 months remaining on it. It is currently the wife's car, may become mine in the next 2-3 months. It is bone stock. Will most likely be turning it in at end of lease. If we trade this car in early, will lose 2k-3k on the trade in, so am very tempted to keep it at least another 6 months or maybe until end of lease. I like a car to handle tighter than this car. I'm sure better tires would help, but am wondering if that will do the trick or not. Suspension seems pretty soft too. Anybody upgraded tires or tires/suspension on this car? Is it worth the money? Keep in mind, upgrading it for $500 or $1000 and driving it for the next 20 months is still cheaper than trading it in now and eating $3k. Especially if I can remove the upgrades and sell them later. My first preference would be to just upgrade tires and be done with it. Maybe a high performance all-season tire like Dunlop SP4000 if still available. Opinions anyone? Thanks ... Jeff B
