I have a question related to this topic. I recently purchased a 2001, six speed coupr. One of the options is the "active" suspension. Some of the aftermarket parts suppliers say that this car can be lowered, while others say "no", due to the active suspension option. Does anyone here have any personal experience with this? Thanks.
