I agree with you OZR...
When I used to drive a Supra Turbo, I changed my suspension to Eibach because I wanted to get the Porsche ride, same thing I did for my sc300, before I igot rid of it when I was able to afford my first Porsche.
My wife agreed to get rid of her RX300 and the A4 because the cayenne provides you the best of both worlds, Luxury and Sporty Ride. I really dont get the point of making the Porsche suspension softer, I couldnt afford the Adjustable Suspension, but I only want that for Offroading Anyways but not a softer ride. Most people bought Cayenne's becasue of handling capabilities, which you wont get on a softer suspension.

i have the eibach springs with 20's here in montreal where the roads are disasterous, the rebound back is terrible with just springs and if anyone is driving the cayenne in a place with bad roads, get the coilovers...i wish i had, yes around $3k so that is like $2700 more, the install is about the same but i would have much preferred it. Dont get me wrong the cayenne is ace now on smooth roads but on bumps.....watch out....everyone in the car complains....enjoy the ride...no 4x4 rides better handles better or performs better.....

Greetings - I have an 04' CS w/ 88K miles. Starting to think about replacing springs, and was wondering if forum owners are still pleased with their H&R springs? If possible, I'd love to reduce some of the stiff legged nature of the truck. (I don't do any towing...just kids, dog, etc.) Any luck with spring or shock changes to soften things up? I see Bilstein has a couple shocks available as OEM replacement, as well. Any feedback is greatly appreciated!
