On a serious note, what's more important, the look of the car after the drop or better handling of the car and continue to be able to drive it very well in the snow.
The reason i ask is dropping the car 2" will give a great look to the car, will certainly go further toward better handling, but it will also stiffen up the ride and at times on a rough road you will feel every bump. You'll have to be very careful coming in and out of driveways, over speed bumps, over railroad tracks. I think you see where I am going.
Get the SVT suspension, IMO. It only drops the car about 1/2", doesn't cost an arm and a leg, really tightens up the handling of the car, still handles well in winter driving conditions and you don't have to worry about every bump in the road. But don't take my opinion of hte SVT suspension.
I have a very lowered car and at times it is great fun, but at times it is a PITA.
Ask AnthonyD or dBlast or 2001ZTS what they think of their SVT suspension.
But truthfully, if your doing it for show, then a 2" drop is beautiful with 17's and you get a nice "tucked" wheel.

TEAM PITA Don't settle for a wannabe, only accept the real deal.
One day I will rule the world. For now, I have to settle for this place.
