Gotta agree, the three speed is great. Really nice to drive. Mine doesnt have the synchronized 1st gear, so you may want to look into using a later model 3 speed, unless she wants to learn to double clutch! If you want to cruise over 50, you may want to look into a rear end upgrade or swap, assuming it still has the enclosed driveline still in it.

Before you get to far, think about what she would like, and what you want to spend to get there. That should help decide. Good luck!
