Depends on what are your goals if you modify the coupe.
CAI/exhaust for the sound? Sure go for it. For performance? I won't bother as they won't do very much. And since you mentioned getting a bike, it sounds like if you were to mod your coupe it would've been for acceleration performance. I did a bunch of NA mods on my old Z4. They helped a bit, but very little, I regretted bothering to mod the car in the first place. Either get a quicker car/bike, or save the money and leave the car stock. Or get a turbo/supercharger.

get the bike! i have the black 06 coupe and a Raven (black) R1. I used to have a CBR 600rr but that got stolen. If your new to riding bikes definitely take the msf course. A lot of people suggest starting on a used 250cc bike which is a great idea. You won't spend a lot of cash, can use it on gear and track time. And it's a fun bike to learn on and you can concentrate better on technique rather than trying to have the bike do the work for you. But...you probably won't listen ( i know i didn't hehe). Just be level headed and respect it because it'll put you on your A** in no time if you don't.
Of course if you do know how to ride, then disregard the information and get a Yammie! hehe. R6's are looking good and with the way they were ran, they came close to putting down the same time's as some superbikes. Have fun!
