Nice.

I've always wondered about adjustable shocks though. From what I've heard, people tend to find the right adjustment for their driving, and then never change them again. If you adjust them, they're either too wobbly or too teeth-shattering. I could imagine them being useful on a race track, where you have to repeat the same turns and do the same straights over and over, but are they really worth it on road cars?
