Great ride height!! Been debating BC coilovers or ohlins r&t. The BC price is much more attractive so that's what I'm leaning to. Hows it ride/handle? Did you have to do anything else since it lowered quite a bit?

They ride great. It is my daily driver so I do get a lot of seat time. Now the roads here are not too bad in Orlando (except I-4) but the handling is enough for me. I don't track the car at all.

Sorry haven't been on much lately but I'll still respond .I'm no air cooled die hard and have only owned a few. As much as Ive enjoyed and loved my different cars I just
really like the " tech" that this car has to offer..... The ability to push a button and open up the exhaust and firm up the suspension...or not and cruise incognito . My 993 and my other air cooled's are just loud and rough all the time. I also like the way this thing howls at around 6K accelerating. The AC cranks , the sunroof pops up in the back, The car is clean, comfortable, has nice 19 inch stock wheels, low miles, sport seats, auto dimming rear view mirror, ..blah, blah, blah. heated seats... navigation and a menu you can do all kinds of crap like store engine hours etc.The list goes on. These 997 S's are just loaded with cool "stuff" and handle real nice. For me the 6 speed manual is a must. I hated my 996 turbo tip.....was the fastest by far but most boring of all.

Also this is the first 911 I've owned where when I look at it there's nothing I don't like about it.

The air cooled are all awesome and definitely in a league of their own. I still have my 993 but I'm just not stuck there like some guys.
