Atlanta g37 meet pics January 2011
. it's a vinyl wrap on the folding top, not a see through roof, although that would be an interesting concept.

Clearification
Lowering Springs are mainly for looks, but drop like Eibach will actaully have same or very similar ride quaility and feeling to Stock Springs and actually will have slight better handling than stock (due to lower center of gravity). So basically lowering springs won't hurt your handling, but it will add to looks and slightly better handling.
For my case with S-tech, probably handling is better than stock. But since is lowww, I gotta be careful going over bumpy roads. So actually you will get habbit of driving slower and watch for potholes on the roads that I never been into.
If, you want to go performance route (superb handling), you gotta get K3 COILS, which will replace everything in suspension, shock etc. Getting a coil is a lot more expensive but handling will be alotttttttt better than stocks.
And from my experience. If you care about handling, i think you gotta care more about the witdth of tire size. wider the tire, better handling. I had 245/35/20 and 285/30/20 before now I have 235/35/20 265/30/20. when I had wider tires, it handled 10000x better.
So Falcons, I think you have a misconception (question) that "Eibach PK will change the handling of the car??" the right question should be "Eibach PK will change the height too much and will I scrape?" (and answer is No but may be sometimes)
and you should care about ""tire size"" for handling.
and 20"s are most likely for the show, not performance, If you care only about performance not look, you must get 19", But you gotta remember that look of the car even with most expensive, niciest design etc won't be even comparable to cars with nice 20"s.

Thanks for the clarification...I want my car to look nice but not at the expense of performance & handling. That is where i enjoy my car the most.
Also, i am not going to lower the car as much to be worried about scraping on the bumps and high grade roads. I will keep an eye for potholes, etc but not so much that i keep worrying about scraping & Pot holes on the road instead of enjoying the car.
Every time i find an open road or curvy road...i stomp the gas pedal. Even on regular highways....i am at least 15mph above speed limit. I am not slowing down for nothing except COPS.
Personally, looks of the car is not my top 3 priority...it is down the list somewhere.
