For the average Joe (reading thru 5 pages of opinions here) it's pretty obvious what you guys need is something with adjustable perches, just to lower the car moreso than dampen/rebound adjustments of the struts themselves. The strut itself only dampens the harsh impact and keeps the spring from oscillating (sp?) after movement. Quality or, what's the 'best' coilover is a very vague question, as the strut manufacturer is not going to be the same as who makes the spring itself.

Also, the real purpose behind having them is to weight jack...aka balance your car. Applying more pressure at one end of your car 'fakes' weight bias, so proper setup requires 4 scales on top of alignment and camber adjustment.
Ding, ding, ding. We have a winner . That's why I find some of the comments here odd. EDFC is being brushed off, but yet putting on a system that hasn't been tuned by someone who understands how to tune suspension is a better option? You'll find even though I work with software I don't side with it too often, but i'd hazard EDFC in auto mode has a better chance of nailing the correct setup than Joe schmoe turning clicks.

Sorry I know this is late, but I've been moving for the last couple of days and now trying to catch up.

I don't think there is C65 AMG, there is only C63.

Damn, street racing and got caught? How 'briliant'
