It is a sportier tuned suspension. I've cut and pasted a couple of descriptions from articles on the C32 life website:
Major chassis differences compared with the more prosaic C320 include retuned spring-damper units all round and the body is 30mm lower to the road.
The C32 AMG's chassis is thoroughly transformed from the basis C-Class suspension calibration to provide the handling feedback and grip dictated by the new supercharged V6 driveline, yet the new super sedan retains the comfort of a Mercedes sedan. Spring rates are increased, shock damping is heightened and stabilizer bars are tailored to the C32 AMG.

I was thinking of doing Tein Basics. This is because they are around 800 dollars new, obviously cheaper used.
I am a college kid on a budget.
Can anyone tell me major differences between the tein basics coilover set up and the c32 AMG sport suspension setup.
My guess would be that the AMG suspension would be more performance oriented while maintaining better ride quality, while my car lowered on tein coilovers would just LOOK NICER without as much benefit to performance along with a harsher ride.
correct me if im wrong.
Again.. sorry if i sound like an idiot. Not much experience with these types of things.
