I agree, lowering a benz sedan just looks ghetto anyway (the plastic body kits look even worse). Lowering a car for handling is a whole different thing. I have a 914/4 (currently needs to be reassembled
) that was set up for autocross, it has 2 or 3 inches of ground clearance with very high rate springs (it's basically a go-cart), and it is at risk when going over speed bumps. With a sports car it's a performance trade-off, but lowering a sedan is just messing up a good car.
