Looking to ride shotgun in a g37 sedan w coilovers

This is a weird thread, I know.

Quick background - I am in the market for a coilover system for my 2013 G37S sedan. However, I have no frame of reference because I've never sat in a car with coilovers or lowering springs (fk me, right?).

If anyone is located in the Bay Area (Northern California) and has a coilover setup on their G sedan, and wouldn't mind me riding as a passenger for 15 min, please message me, or reply here so that I can message you. I'm in the market for the Tein Street Basis but any coilover setup is fine. I just need to "feel" something so that I can use it as a frame of reference i.e. what does 9k/8k spring rate feel like, what does a lower center of gravity feel like, etc.

Cheers.

Not sure if it would help much lol.
Even if I shotgun my own car, it doesn't feel the same. you will probably have to drive one or take our word for it "it's better!". Not talking about slammed lower settings where you scrape everywhere.
I got a sedan too, 19" wheels, my car is lowered but I can haul 4 adults in my car AND pass most speed bumps without scraping :P (will add more height soon).
