Are there any coilovers available other than the $3,000+ Cortex coils?
I'm currently waiting for BC Racing to release their BR series coils.
I've went Springs before and never will again... so coils or air for me.

Is the car just still too new? lol

We'll be getting Cortex coilovers for our GT. You're getting a lot of 3k and you do get what you pay for.

I'm not looking for super-track coilovers though so the Cortex is a lot more than I want to pay..

As for ^, why not? There are plenty of more affordable coilovers (BC Racing BR, KW V2, H&R Street, etc) that are very nice for a daily. I don't road course my car, and if I do it would be extremely rare..

IDK the sportlines really wake up the handling. Destroyed a 2014 g37 on the back roads. It had lowering springs and maxed out rubber. Not even close to my car in the turns.

Various vintage shelbys
i called Eibach and KW and nothing or any ETA, i am very surprised why the aftermarket is lagging on this hot new mustang.
the Cortex units use JRI shocks which i have on a few of my high dollar Mustang pro touring cars and will say they are incredible and worth the money,

my issue is I am 100% certain il be trading my car for a GT350 and i am reluctant to dump $4000 on coilovers etc when I am sure the GT350 with mag ride will be a an pretty darn incredible system and its stock.

I have the complete Eibach pro Kit in the box still as i am not sure if its worth installing or not as i feel the PP shocks are limiting to what i want.

If performance isn't the primary goal I'd suggest springs and shocks/struts instead of coilovers. FRPP Handling Package would be a great place to start.

The S/A Cortex have 30 series racing dampeners. A bit higher end than I initially thought.

Mono-Tube, not like the sports, so should be pretty robust.

One of the things you do not want to go cheap-o on is suspension bits...if you're interested in real quality and performance, you're going to have to pay for it.

I'm not looking to go cheap. I'm not looking to spend $4,000 on coilovers because that's overkill on what I'm going to use the car for.

I'd be perfectly fine with spending $1200-1500 on some coilovers.

I'm guessing your a hard parker that is more interested in the look of putting it in the weeds than performance. Cheap ass, crappy BC is probably your game then.
