As in a mod of some type? Don't know what you can do with that budget.

Buy one rear tire, maybe?

Two rear tires and a set of Carlsson door pins. Or pony-up a few more hundred and get a tune from Eurocharged. But then again, your're back to the tires!

Invest in a 6 month CD. That way you will have $502 to spend on replacing your then worn out rear tires.

Gas - w/ a C63 you'll be losing a lot of gas
Investments - invest in a ETF/bonds/stocks/forex/etc

get a 9500ix, already saved me from at least 2 tickets in my goat, and ontop of that countless insurance hikes if i would have gotten those tickets. But if you want to be super sleek save up for the 9500ci, which is going to set you back a ton more but then you will be protected from the lasers

Opened another thread about this but how but new winter tires for 500$??

I ordered new wheels and new winter tires.. Unfortunately the promise from the wheel factory that the tires (Bridgeston Blizzaks 225 40 18) would fit was not true.. So now I have to get myself 235s.. If anybody wants to buy my Blizzaks for 500$ let me know. I paid $727.16 for them so will take a hit but would like to get rid of them...
I have the receipt from tirerack with the dates and paid amounts and can send over.. The tires has been on my car (Put on yesterday) but barely driven on.

The link to the info for the tires:
