I really don't think it's worth spending that much on CR suspension...

I don't think he asked 
I've never ridden in a CR or CR equipped car, but I have ridden in a PSS9 equipped car. I must say, it was both comfortable and "confidence inspiring" at the same time.

I am also running the PSS9 setup on my '08. Love it. Having driven a CR I would say the PSS9 damping is much softer at the "9" setting. At full stiff "1" - it will be much stiffer than the stock CR suspension... you will feel every crack in the road and probably loose some fillings.
Only issue I find is that the height is hard to adjust "precisely". Although, I would assume this is a problem with all coil overs.

I'm in the same boat, but i'm looking at a different cost. If you decide to get fully adjustable coils, you need to get them corner balanced to enjoy all they have to offer.

Have you changed your sway bars from stock? And if not, do the PSS9s reduce body roll compared to when you had on stock coilovers?
