Wow, whats the deal with " it needs dropped" WTF DOES THAT HAVE TO DO WITH CLEAN. Why not say "raise that sucka and it'll be clean LOL. It could'nt hurt the handling charachteristics any worse than a 2" drop. I mean come on; does a car need dropped to be clean? I guess if a guy would jack his 71 AMC gremlin about 4 inches in the 70's it would have been considered clean even if it was still a piece of crap.

Dropping an S2K is the general consensus when it comes to looking clean, especially while rollin on nice wheels. Heck, MOST sports cars look better when they're dropped. Not to mention that the lower center of gravity helps out in terms of handling, compared to something "raised up".
Nowadays, the only things that look good raised up are pickup trucks and SUVs...but hey, if you're comfortable with having a 4x4 S2K, then by all means go for it!

... unless you are dropping your car with some $150 set of springs with stock shocks than I see no reason not to lower your car. If you buy a good set of coilovers it not only looks way cleaner, it will also improve your handling. 
I think its a must to have a clean car.

). Keep up the great work.
