Just to clarify, for those that don't know the difference, WaveyKat had TEIN Basic's not Super Streets. The difference between the two is significant due to the adjustable dampers. So, in essence, it's not an "ideal" comparison.

am not saying that Tein is a bad Setup it Great according to were you live. if you live where the street are really bad and bumpy you should get the Tein Super Street.
but atleast i experience with both setups and having the Dampers to adjust is Great.

That's what I thought. My main thing was to point out, for those that didn't know the difference, that you were comparing the TEIN Basic's to the KW-V2's. Two completely different style of coilovers, since the KW's are fully adjustable and the Basic's are not.

I don't think you should expect to get more than the kelly blue book private seller price. Not many people want to buy a hooked up Benz (regardless of what kind of parts are on it).
