Coil overs is the best thing to do but in all honesty if your just looking for the stance anything 1.2 or higher should be fine. I would look at the PDFAT, BMR, Hotchkis, LSR, and Pedders. Those are all great and reputable compaines when it comes to suspension and pretty much there is at least more than 1 person running each company on their cars so you can get some input on ride quality

Truff! I was looking and some ppl are using springs below 2.25" and I wanted to kno how bad the quality is or if it changed much at all. Im not interested in coils but if all else fails I might pull the trigger on the hotchkis springs.

Speaking of transformer editions. With the pictures of the new transformer camaro, which is said to be not the 6th gen, will they not have a transformer edition in the 6th gen?

You can get some BC racing coilovers for under 1k and they are pretty good.

2014 no. There has been a 2010 and 2012 TF edition I just wish they would do the actual bumble bee color instead of rally yellow. I absolutely love that color on the Camaro

I have a 1.3" drop in the front. Its not bad at all. In all honesty, I think 1.4 is the limit for a decent ride. The bmr springs are 1.4 and they aren't bad at all. The H&R 1.8/1.9" drop is probably not as fun ride quality wise. I personally wouldn't get coilovers if you just want the "look". If u want better suspension performance coilovers for sure

I know a few people that have done but it hasn't cost that much. Both the people I talked to said they spent roughly 10K and that was taking the car to the raw metal and taking apart the car. But yes I understand why they don't have it I just wish they do.
