Not cos of how well it handles but because they will be able to tell you how well it handles compared to their own cars or other cars they have been in. I have only really been in my car, so its hard for me to say mine are better than anything else.
I would suggest talking to dumdum, krisB, Phil, the london lot they have all been in my car. My car has a hard ride so I would suggest a slightly softer spring rate.
If I had to pick one word to describe cornering in Marks car I would describe it as frightening.
It is absolutely unbelievable, Hell approach a corner at probably 15% faster than I would (and when i went out with him it was on roads Ive driven fast on) and my brain is screaming that this is going to end in certain death but he turns in and it just sticks, It feels incredibly untroubled by the whole thing and feels like it could go another 5-10% faster again.
Undoubtedly this is not entirely due to his choice of coilovers but also the many many other uprated suspension parts he has.
If you want to write yourself a 306 suspension shopping list go out in Marks car and copy.
