I think something that most are assuming but haven't mentioned is that the handling of the car is dialed in correctly. I've had this problem over the last couple of years and I think I've finally corrected it. You do all the body work, upgrade the vehicle as you would have ordered it originally from the dealer. Unfortunately the car doesn't ride as nicely as your friends car does. You do all the eye candy things but in the final analysis it is how the ride feels that brings you back to the day. That defines a good car from a great car. Most people on Ebay don't understand this difference because their focus is on owning the car. A true car lover will ride in a car and know that when all the other things are the same, the thing that seperates the chaff from the wheat is the total handling package.
