You no when i first got the scooby i was shocked in how well it handled the corners. But it is even more amazing now. I have not really had time to really go out down the back roads but hit some corners and roundabouts on my way back and was well impressed. The drive is slightly more rough but i suppose these cars are driven to feel the road and not really a luxuary car.

Ive got Tein Coilovers on my Version 6 STi and They are quite hard for everyday use, My missus want me to take them off as she finds it to hard but I do like the way the car handles with the coilovers on. Bumpy roads can be quite a problem if you decide to drive fast as the car seems to have no rebound and it does get a bit twitch at the rear(nearly lost it twice). But on a nice bit of tarmac nothing comes close to the way the car handles!!!!!

Got Super Streets on my 04 STI, I use my car daily and find them quite hard on roads with any kind of bump (they are set on the softest setting).
As already mentioned they don’t seem to have much, if any, rebound. When on the motorway for example if you go over a bump/small dip in the road you get a sudden jolt.
On a flat smooth road they are good but I personally think if you were pushing the car on a bumpy back road it would feel a bit "skittish" over the bumps.
I can live with them as they were on the car when I got it but I do have the originals too. One day I may get round to trying something else.
