Too many USB devices

Alright I have about 13 USB Devices, which i need connected to my pc
4 – 1.1 devices
1.1 Keyboard – lighted
1.1 Videogame Joystick/controller
1.1 calculator
1.1 touchscreen

7 – 2.0 devices
2x 2.0 Webcam
2.0 DVD Burner
2.0 CF Reader
2.0 ipod
2.0 flashdrive
2.0 printer

2 – devices which only require power
Power – phone
Power – Bluetooth headset

I'm wondering if anyone has a good solution for how I should connect / power these. My PC is mounted in my trunk, and I drive a honda civic, (about 10' cable length is required to get to my dash, which is where these will be connected, all except for the cf reader). The only thing i've thought of so far was to buy a pci card with 5 usb 2.0 ports run 5 10' extension cables, and run a unpowered 4 port usb hub to the front of the car for the 1.1 devices.
I was also wondering what kind of stress this might put on my opus 150. Thanks
