Amen.  Has my vote.
 
We have an ur-quattro in the local area that's been lowered around 1 1/2 cm.
 
It sucks.  As the model for the 5K predicted (and the ur-q is not that much 
different) the roll centre is up on the parcel shelf.

As close to how Neckarsulm intended - that's the _only_ way for me.

If you want different performance from your Audi - buy a different Audi.
