Am I the only one who likes the stock ride height??????
It all depends on your personal preferences and what you're going to be using the Vehicle for. 
Mine is for just general Tooling Around (No Speeding or Dragging
) on
City streets, Highway and occasional
Gravel.
So If we're Voting, I'm for Stock Height.

Got vote for the stock ride height. Not that I don't like the lowered look because I do. But I lowered a 96 Cobra and would drag the underbelly on everything from curbs, speed bumps, half flatten raccoons and even in my gravel driveway. For that reason I won't lower this car. Put on a front spoiler, larger wheels and tires plus mine is a Vert which to me already looks lower than the coupes. I'm happy!! So add me to the stock ride height group!!

The slight rake is good for you high speed driving fiends ... it promotes body down force and keeps the car planted. You don't want the front promoting lift at high speed.
I have resisted dropping mine any because I know I would need to do a number of other mod's to restore suspension geometry. And being the engineering i would have to do them.
Some of the posted pic's in this thread with the larger ties makes the car look good. All they might need is a little heavier front and read sway bar.
My 69 BOSS is lowered. I use to do SCCA Solo I with it many years ago. I looks ba-ba-bad. But driving on the street has its penalties. I have to be weary of steep drive ways and speed bumps. Other than that it handles like a slot car.

i had a eibach pro-kit on my '06, but I bottomed out a few times and scraped speed bumbs, parking blocks, curbs, etc. plus now i have a job where the driveway into the parking lot is at a steep angle.
i'd like to lower the car with steeda ultralites but i don't want any clearance issues. stock height for me.

As much as I liked the looks of my car when it was lowered, after installing the body kit made having a lowered car impractical. I kept scrapping the front fascia everywhere I went so I put the original springs back in.
