Check out this vid.


Now, I know some of you will claim this is too "hoopdi", but I have heard good things about the performance of the air ride suspension. Think about it, you can custom tune the spring rate to fit any condition, on the fly. Combined with some sort of electronic magnetic dampers, the whole suspension could be fully custom on the fly. At any rate, even if you dont like air rides, this is a great vid to see how the S197 looks at different ride heights: full lowering spring, rear lowering springs only, front only, front lift kit..

i personally like air ride. adjustability is cool and looks good when parked. what i hate is when people are "hittin the switches" while driving. living in a town that has an automotive school has that effect on you. too many dumb kids think its cool to do while driving.

Click to expand...

i'd say pretty damn close if not better. haha. if i were to do just a show car out of my car, and not take it to the track at all, i would look into getting air ride. if i had a truck i would definitely get it. hear nothing but good things about it.
