Can you put some weight in the car and see how much the car is lowered?
How about 3 friends, a full tank of fuel (petrol), and some cargo in the trunk (boot)?
If not this, how about 500 kilos worth of ballast, weight lifting weights on the floor and trunk?
What I am getting at is what is the spring rates like? soft, hard?
Thanks

I also would like to know if the suspession is good. how stiff is it?
I've tried my girlfrens new car, BMW 330i, and damn the suspension is really stiff!!! i didnt really like it as it has a bumpy ride.
But for cornering, it is damn stable.
