Springs!? or lack of...

Can anybody tell me, does the 300CE have the same springs i.e. length as the 300 sedan? The reason I ask is my car has been slammed by the previous owner and I want to put the car back to original.

Not sure, but if you find out they're different, and can use E320 springs, let me know, I have the stock ones lying around somewhere.

G'day!

Yes I do want a smoother ride. It’s to firm and when it encounters big bumps it bounces too much. I think the shocks need changing. Do you know of a good spring make I could use?
