To live with they are really useable. Mine is quite low and has the deeper gt2 bumper but still doesn't have problems with speed bumps.
Parts can be expensive, but generally the dry sump turbo block is very reliable.
Inside is a bit dated, especially the indicator stalks. I also think the steering wheel is a bit thin, I'm looking out for a spare to send away to be trimmed.
