Default Personally I would never just get springs. I would

rather do a true coilover kit and get the total package going. I think many get springs thinking it looks cool because it's lowered but may not truly benefit a whole lot other than a harsher ride. That's just my $.02 though. For now I'm satisfied with the stock setup on the sport package. I hope someone finds out the details of the stock setup.

Default True. I'd get the Audi part numbers for shocks and springs for that.

Or, wait till someone like Stasis comes out with their coilovers. Though the pics that April posted a while back looked a bit too low for me.

Default Can always get an adjustable setup. Honestly I'm

not familiar with Stasis stuff. Coming from Bimmer land everyone was into Ground Control, H&R and Bilstein. I had a custom H&R job on my M which was awesome.

Default Guess we'll have to wait for the stuff to come out.

In all honesty, I loved the sport suspension on my B6 A4 Avant. Perfect height, perfect ride for me. I'm really surprised that the sport suspension for the A3 didn't lower the car more or else I would have seriously considered the sport package.

If the S-Line does lower the A3 and give it a similar ride as the sport package, that would be the way I'd like to approach it rather than go after market.

Default MINI = Better handling, more fun to toss around. Audi = Better all around car.

But it can be a 10k price difference (without the jcw).
