Nice score! Would love to see pics.

Sounds like similar specs and mileage the my new one. Mind if I ask roughly what you paid?

"Lower the vehicle - via Pat" can you tell me what this is about? Sounds interesting...

I believe Pat is a member on here? He owns a Lemans 4.8iS as well, but has lowered it via computer software. I'd like to keep the factory air ride suspension but just drop it a little (~1.5 inches).

Pictures will be up shortly - needs a cleaning after the long drive back.

Oh I definitely want to learn more about that! Same here - would love to keep factory setup (just got all replaced recently by previous owner) but desperately want it lower.

Please keep me posted.

FYI - I have lowered the vehicle a little via AutoLogic! Once I get it to the right ride height, i'll take some pictures and measurements
