Without going outrageous like 4wd, tank tracks, or A arms, what's your standard for a nice off roader? Hopefully going to have some spare cash laying around soon.

My current standing:
Locked transaxle
Pulley swap
Twin engine
Knobby tires
bigger front tires
straight pipe exhaust

Added in from users:
C channel frame
Dual side-pipes

Anything that can be used for racing, trailing, romping, and work.

Basically, a Rally mower.
