Well guys, after 3rd round interviews I got an attractive offer from Market (previously FCS "Financial Computing Services"). I am almost positive I will take this offer, but I still have an interview today and tomorrow with different companies....

congrats on the quick turnaround

You just have to learn how to drive lowered. I've driven lowered cars for over 10 years. Speed bumps are a piece of cake...driveways are a piece of cake....but now air suspension makes it even easier.

Congrats!

I just dropped the Evo... Great in corners, but I went with super stiff spring rates on my coilovers (14/14) and its pretty rough on the city streets.

dude you drive a G, not an impala or big rig.

You want coilovers or drop springs.

I guess I would say it's more a show car than anything but he has had it on the track and said it performed well with the air suspension.
