yeah falcons are pretty good for ride comfort.. once you lower them, stiffer suspension, lower profile tires, etc. they can get a bit rougher.. but still nice. i like the ride fairly firm but not overly.

Im thinking either VTEC and front wheel drive or busa engine in the boot and rear wheel drive. But for now the standard engine is getting turboed. I hate the damn thing, its more of a money pit than the falcon.

My car with 17's super lows and monroes rides very rough compared to the 4x4 floaty futura suspension it used to have. I some times miss the nice ride, but the looks and handling win hands down

I agree ride comfort is important, and will get out of the bad habit of lowering cars any day now.

Nah it hasnt been registered for a while. My bike is my smaller method of transport now. I just got a new engine for it a while back but want to do an engine conversion or turbo the one I have now. I already bought a little turbo for it. Once the engine is sorted or maybe before its getting deseamed and a nice respray with a decent set of wheels and stuff. BUUUT that is after I run a 12.  :
