Carlsson coil overs?

Anyone here halve had experience with these coilovers? Am not showing much input on the boards for them. Do we know much they cost?

From what I've read, they are based on Bisltein coilovers and definitely aren't cheap.
I'd rather go with KW V3s.

There was a set on Ebay,

Seller wanted 2500 for them, and settled on 1650.

for 1650 they are tough to beat. For the 2500 the seller was asking for, I would have just stuck with KW.

I am the one who bought them but have no idea how much retail is for them and didn't see any feedback from actual users. I literally just threw out that bid and didn't think he would let it go but he did so was honestly surprised. They are brand new, maybe display unit but not sure. I think it sat in his inventory for a long time so was basically liquidating it.

Good Buy,

The price is decent, he offered me them for 1500 (but was charging an arm and a leg to ship to Canada). I passed up on them in favor of a KW setup.

Let us know how they are when you get them installed!

1650 for a set of Carlsson coils is a steal

Will keep everyone posted....haven't seen them yet so hopefully they are what he says they are...model number matches and pics look good. His rating is also high so doubt there will be an issue with them.
