Coilover question
I've searched several threads but this isn't covered that I can find.
For the 2016 GT with non-adjustable suspension, do coilovers provide a better ride than the stock struts? I drove one and it was way too stiff for anywhere but the track, IMO. I'm looking to try and get behind the wheel of a GTS with the adjustments but haven't had the chance yet. FWIW I have put softer springs on a previous car to make it more livable on the street - that car handled better than stock even with the softer springs. I might do one or two track days a year so I doubt I'll ever approach the limits of the car.
Is there any truth to the 2018s having a better ride in comfort than previous years?
