I now have the 2002 Camaro SS LE and although the bug bites me often, I refuse to modify it at all and have a greater desire to keep it completely orginal.
But, I believe that it is the option of each individual in what they want to do with their car. Just because I prefer to keep mine original and the future value does come into play, ,not for sale purposes, but for owning a car that is highly admired/desired due to it's still being completely original - collector. This is not to say that someone shouldn't modify another. Plenty people do.
It is a matter of preference. I'm older, MUCH older, now and to think if I would have just kept that fully restored 57 Chevy when I bought my first car... or the 70 LS6 Chevelle...... or the 1969 NOVA SS (No not the one I built the 511 for - I've owned 11 of those!).
Enjoy what you have and have a great time with it!!!
