Cheap KW Variant I

Can anyone point me in the direction of finding cheap (cheaper than $1475) Variant I KW coilovers?

Any help would be much appreciated!

The variant 1 only allows you to adjust the height, the variant 2 allows you to adjust the height and the damper (ride quality). The 2 is thw way to go. I just sent you a PM.

What kind of driving do you do, Mike?

Your answer might help some of us give some better technical advice.

I agree, for daily driving IMO I wouldn't bag the car.

I saw at SEMA that MP will be offering adjustable coilovers. DOn't know if it adjusts dampning/rebound or if it's just ride height.

I got my variant 2 KW coil overs from Hennessey (one of the form sponsors) for a reasonable price with good customer service.. I PM'd John Hennessey for a price better than the web site (i think there may have been a group buy at the time)

http://www.hennesseyperformance.com is their web site

Jeeesh, does Hennessey have some kind of monopoly on these? Their price on their website is $200 over MSRP on KW's website:
