the auto GTS is pretty much worthless when it comes to mdifying it for speed. if you're really serious you'll want to try and find a new torque converter. other then that just go for looks and or suspension stuff.

Yeah, with an auto your performance mods should be suspension. Enjoy what the car was made for, handling.

Definitly suspension, save up for a set of coilovers!

Suspension. Get hotchkis sway bars for about 250 shipped and 150 installation. That will be the best mod you can do without going with nitrous, turbo, or supercharger.
