I don't know exactly what suspension was put in by the previous owner. Yes it is lowered just right to my liking. The suspension is tight and drives and handles very well. I have not done the compression test. I don't see a need as it still pulls hard as it should.

- Maintenance: could you provide an itemized list of the ~$12K spent since 2021? When were the clutch, shocks, brakes, and tires last done?
- Engine/gearbox: any oil leaks, smoke, or oil consumption? Has any top-end work been done?
- Does the AC blow cold?

Send me a DM with your cellphone number and I will provide you with the maintenance records for the >$12K spent.. As far as I know, there is no top end work done on the car. The tires are 2021 and 2018 with plenty of thread left. There are oil leaks in the valve cover gasket that was fixed during the last oil change in July 2025. Oil consumption is decent. Car does not smoke and AC blows cold.
