wow my mouth dropped when it jumped over that bump!!!!
i wonder how many years it will take to get tokiko, etc to copy the technology and bring it to the import tuner market.

Looks heavy as hell + I like to feel the road when I drive.
being able to jump is pretty cool though...

i'm guessing if you took a turn very fast it would either stay perfectly flat like in their low speed video clips, or the whole car would flip over

Imagine ZERO body roll at a slammed ride height! I wonder what effect it has when leaning INTO corners? Less inner tire lift?
These would probally be nice for Kyles car, I thought I was gonna rip whats left of his mudguards off with his HKS suspension going into turns.
i'd say you need some yay-negative camber to take that thing around corners without flipping over

Very cool tech, and I remember reading the article about this a few years ago in Car and Driver. (I belive it's been around for about 3 years.)
The problem is BOSE stuff is very expensive, and while I'm sure they have shown this suspension system to many auto makers, nobody has paid the fees yet to produce it on their cars....
What FORD or GM needs to do is buy the rights to this, and then put it on every vehicle they make to cut down the costs, and actually intrest people in buying their vehicles?
OK, not like that is going to happen right... LOL (Actually it's sad, but the Z06 is the only US branded car I'm even remotely interested in.)
If someone like TEIN bought the rights, and then developed a system that could be retrofited to older cars, that would be very amazing indeed. (Just about as likely as GM or FORD building cars I'm going to buy anytime soon.)

If I'm not mistaken one or more of the cadilacs have some sort of magnetic suspension already either in use or used on a previous model similar to this.
Very expensive technology yes.
