Well I actually picked this car up on the 22nd but it is my christmas present to myself, I have wanted one of these cars since they came out and I finally got one. So far mods are H&R springs and struts, magnaflow exaust, K&N air and I plan to do a lot more as soon as I have some more cash to spend. Im pretty glad to find out that there is such a big CSVT following because this honestly has been my dream car since I test drove one when In 98' when I was 16.

Those are not H&RS, That rear is sitting way to low, Unless you have a lot of stuff in the trunk.
Its either that or the person cut the rear springs.
But honestly i think they are Intrax springs, What color are the springs btw. If there red its H&Rs if its blue its Intrax and black would be eibachs.

Acutally I am not 100% sure that they are H&Rs, I took it to a mechanic the day I brought it back, he was a younger guy who seemed pretty stoked on the car so I just asked him what he thought I had in there. The springs are blue with yellow covers so if you know what those are then there yah go. I know that the car handles very well for how its sitting so im happy regardless although Ive always been one for performance over appearance so maybe ill have to upgrade later. Lol if you can notice in the picture I actually live on a dirt road, as it is Ive been gritting my teeth every single time I come or go from the ranch.

Def not H&Rs now that i think about its Roush springs and not Intrax(because these are purple) and sounds like Koni struts to me.
