Lowering steering wheel?

I'm curious if there is any possible way to make the steering wheel go lower in an 05 coupe with telescopic adjustment. I am about 5'9-5'10 and if I set the seat to my preferred position of driving, then the steering wheel sits too high up. I guess I'm pretty picky when it comes to my driving position. But in my buddies 350 the steering wheel comes down pretty low and gives the car a much sportier feel.

Haha..there's a black handle lookin thing under the steering wheel. Pull that down and you can set the height, then push it back up to lock it in place

I have the premium package that comes with the power version. Does the manual version go relatively low?

Wow, really? Mine is an 04 with every option. I can't believe they changed something so arbitrary in 05. Yeah, mine can go almost to a flat 90 degrees.

I believe the motto for that year was - "Must. Have. Power. Everything."

If you're going to lower your wheel, do it right. Go for coilovers. You'll need an alignment afterwards so your horn works properly.
