What future plans do you have for YOUR 928?

I have an exhaust project going on, which is moving very slowly. Need a better sound without more back pressure.
I have some new .bin files from JDS that I need to retune the car with.
Then it's time to see where the stock long block's limits are.
Once the limits are found, I want to drop in the low-compression engine and tune it. There are a couple of improvements in that engine that ought to give some interesting results.
After that, it's time for new suspensions and new wheels.

EURO85, fix powersteering leak, check on auto trans leak and change fluids (Dr. Bob, to lazy to go through our zillion emails back and forth...did you change the tranny fluid? Won't do that if you did.) Probably do something to help the paint, would like to repaint the whole car but that just isn't going to happen I am afraid... A few interior trim pieces will be fixed too. The car will be really nice with one trip to my mechanic except for the needed paint work.
'88 S4 needs a new trans (to many track days w/o changing the fluid burned it up! Damn it!) so we will do that soon and have the CDR220 installed at the same time. That car will be VERY, VERY nice after that. BLUE82, EURO92 and '94 really don't need anything...waiting on a rear luggage cover from Paul C for the '94 (and a steering wheel and center console for the '88...forgot about those almost).
The '84 (if it does not sell) will get front seat covers and then get the rear seats and center console re-dyed for match. Probably new rear rotors and pads and an alignment too...that is all that car needs. Well needs a decent stereo too...might do that if I keep it as well.

Good thread. My plan comprises things I already have the parts for, and things I don't.
Complete the things I have the parts for:
1. Eibach springs and Boge shocks
2. DR front and rear sway bars
3. New transmission mounts
4. New LEDs in my pod, one of my current LEDs has burned out
5. Replace vacuum diaphrams in HVAC system. I have 'em all
6. LEDs in HVAC controller - I've had 'em for two years
7. Fix wire to passenger side front speakers
8. Have my 18" TT wheels refinished
9. Cut air pump belt; X-pipe recently installed
10. Install new tie rods and rack boots
Complete the things I don't have parts for yet:
1. Install PKlamp
2. Flush brakes, change to 33 bar bias regulator, new pads
3. SS brake lines
4. Convert to LED tail lights and modify tail lights for more light
5. Install new rack bushings
6. Install convex passenger silde mirror glass
Since my car is my DD, I have to really schedule each job to fit a tight time schedule. All of the suspension work is going to be done by one of the best shops in the area. The remainder will be done by me.
