Hyperbole on my part. My bad. It's like when people say that the car looks like a 4 x 4 , stock.

I love the white C2S. Yours is very classy. I am looking to lower (or tighten up) my suspension, while I have everything off the car. Thinking springs or coilovers.

Adding my two cents to the debate... I had eibach pro-kit on my first BMW and appreciated the improved appearance and better ride. Felt a little floaty though in a tight corner. Went with the H&Rs for the 911 and am very happy with the firmer ride and much improved appearance.

^^^ Great stance and those wheels match the car perfectly.

Very nice. Really freshens the look of the whole car. Thought it was a 991 at first glance.

This is my attempt to post a similar angle to sandwedge above but my car has the Eibach Pro Kit and 15mm spacers.
I have always used Eibachs since the mid 90s but I have tried some other brands as well. I just seem to gravitate back to Eibachs though.
I'm not posing an argument really, just a statement more or less.
