Maybe the 01-03 LS had those feature but I definitely did not see it on the 01-06 housing. I know they had AFS for the 04-06. I can check again, but even with my autoleveling, the difference is very very minor from the driver seat, and oncoming drivers.

One of the CL members from my city came over for me to brakes on his car last week. My price was a 12pk of Corona. He didn't have a key to his wheel locks but was nice enough to leave the beer behind anyway... Thanks mike!

They really don't make much of a difference, but they sure look cool leveling at start up and I have seen them move/level when the car is on an incline or decline.

NICE!

Looks good, not too intrusive or anything. I can't wait to see the night shots.

I too loved the photo with the two GS's in it haha.
