I'm interested in the MR shocks if they provide a better ride (smoother on bad roads). 2 grand sounds outrageous though.

I wouldn't trust anything from that article, given they clocked an Evo 8 RS @ 14.5 in the quarter.

Yes, the MR Bilsteins are ridiculously priced. Adam at Z1 can get them, here's the link:

$3799. Wayyyy too much money. I'd personally go with a nice set of JIC coilovers.

Bilstien custom valved the shocks for my 911, all I did was send them back to bilstien and pay them the job was about 350.00 what do you think the chance would be of buying these direct from bilstein?
