People are mean because its a fucking grand am. You couldn't possibly waste more money putting shit on it. Leave it stock and drive it.
You can learn plenty on it w/o modifying it.
My first 240 I had for 3 years I left completely bone stock, I learned PLENTY! I did my own brakes, oil changes, timing chain, water pump, oil pan gasket, spark plugs, clutch, alternator, misc fluid changes, solved wiring issues ect ect... I learned SOOO fucking much doing it on my own. I didn't add a single performance part to the damn thing. I built my current 240 1.5 years after I bought my original 240. I researched, I already had experience with working on cars from just fixing my daily with STOCK parts. I got my rb25 together with really no issues and had a blast after that.
Getting window tint, and adding wheels will teach you nothing.
My advice is learn basic car care, and how to maintain your grand am. Save your pennies and buy something that will actually be worth modding. A grand am simply is not worth your time.
