After quite a bit of research on this site, I decided to purchase the euro suspension kit from Porsche for my '01 S.

Can't wait!!! Ordered it from Design911 UK with a very reasonable cost. Kit costs 599 GBP with a flat international shipping to the USA for an additional 80 GBP.

Total cost in USD to my door is $1037.66 and after ordering yesterday, the kit is already in route....no waiting at all. Great service and communcation!

I will post some pictures pre and post install. Here is one pre.

It must be one of the very few things you can get cheaper in the UK

Surely well worth at this price if you want just the refresh.

I was shocked at how low this was with shipping applied from the UK. Lowest in the states closest to me is Suncoast, but their price prior to shipping is 1088 usd so by the time shipping is applied, they would be 150 or more.

Hate to pinch too many pennies, but in this economy, I have too.

Only reason I did this is because my b-day is coming up and I haven't bought myself anything in a while.

That bundle together is a great deal. The individual costs if purchased all separately can be at least double that package price.

By the way, your car looks great as is! Very clean, looks good with those wheels, and the paint looks awesome.

Will look even better with the ROW, looking forward to seeing the results!

It's the way the car should have come in the first place. Noticeably more oriented towards sport than comfort compared to the stock suspension. I've got 17"s adn the ride is still not jarring over ruts and bumps. The drop doesn't hurt the car's looks either. Enjoy.

I put the row m030 on my car 18 months ago. Loved it with the stock 17" wheels. Upgraded to 18" wheels recently and love the combo even more! Just my humble experience, but I think this suspension package works best with 18's. Grip level is fabulous and the ride is still very good.

By the way, when I bought the package from Sunset, I paid $974. But that was almost 2 years ago.
