I'm still curious though about the suspension. Has the aftermarket stuff proven to be better than OEM?
Just like any other car, the suspension is fine for stock. But if you want a drop you are going to have to get aftermarket suspension. I didn't really want to sacrifice ride quality so I went with what seems to be a popular set of springs, and are only a tad stiffer than stock but provide a small drop. I really like them and the car definitely hugs the corners better. :biglaugh:

Thanks Edison, I'm sure you could. Just have to make a commitment to budget and invest.

Amazing cars, love it. New exhaust sounds nice at idle... how is it on a rev or driving, still pretty smooth and crisp?

Those 2 pics above ARE with the springs on. It's lowered in the pics.

Here's a pic of one on stock ride height. (notice the wheel gap)

Now go back up and look at mine... see the difference?

Thanks. It's got a nice deep tone to it now, pretty smooth. Not actually obnoxious or really loud. Just good enough.

Oh, that was back in June. I changed out the silver wheels for the gunmetal ones. Silver ones just didn't look right. Here's a pic of it when it was at the dealer.

As you can tell, I now have the gunmetal ones. They changed from gunmetal to silver in the 2011. 2008-2010 they had the gunmetal ones. That's all, nothing special.
