Check out Stance Coilovers, cost less than $2000 and still Track worthy! for $2000, they will have the ones with external resivors soon. about 2 weeks or so...

I heard great things about the KWs. I just want to try them out for myself. My car is my daily driver so comfort is an issue.

I like the German engineering of the KWs. I like the Ohlins too but those are out of my price range.

If you were in Northern Kalifornia, I'd gladly give you a ride. The KW V3's on my STi are the best suspension setup I've driven or ridden in. Perfect for track days and still comfortable on the streets with a 5 minute adjustment. They are much, much better than the JIC FLTA2's I had on my WRX wagon and not much more expensive.

Can you compare them to any spring only setups? I have the 05 Tanabe GF210s and I hate the ride.
