I'm 10 days or so into Koni springs & shocks.
It is NICE to have the car flat in corners.
I waited to see how they'd feel over various surfaces, if I had to spend all day on a crummy road I might object, but then the stock suspension didn't exactly smooth all the bumps out. Tolerable. I'm on the soft setting.
I did hit the bump stop once (never saw what i hit) wasn't overly pleasant.
But I've hit some holes and cracks and normally there's very little drama.
I love the lowered look, will take some getting used to the clearance.
Made it on & off the ferry with all parts intact. I still haven't tried the top of my camp driveway, I have to be committed when I try that.
I don't take my car to the track, don't run at the limit (normally). But I really appreciate the feel of 4 tires on the road on corners. The car always stuck well but felt like maybe was on 2 wheels.
Just completed a 950 mile r/t drive to Buffalo, no discomfort, of course you'd expect that from any Saab.
Naturally the before and after photos are from slighly different angles.
