Um....that suspension is not even close to the look of an F sport suspension. I have a sport package 2IS and dropped on F sport springs about 8 months ago. It's noticablely different from the stock sport suspension. I could barely tell the different in ride hide between the stock sport suspesion and the non sport suspension and I owned both vehicles.
His X-Package has the sport suspension, it's not lowered.

Our roads here in Cali are also less than desirable. I switched to F-Sport shocks and springs after 4,000 miles on the OEM. It was alright, the height was decent, but the ride was really harsh. Went to coils around 10,000 miles and was amazed at how they balanced comfort and sport, haven't looked back (35,000 now) - wasn't about the height at the time for me, more the value. Both the shock and spring cost me $700+, the coils were $800. I'd of rather spent that extra hundred knowing what I know now

i consider the suspension on the "f-sport" package MY 2011 cars and up the "x-package" supension...I dont see how its any different. Some people say its lower and rides different then the stock...which im sure it is but ive driven both and havent noticed anything....once i get some help putting on my fsport springs ill do a comparison.

The fsport suspension lowers the front of your car by 0.8 inches in the front and 0 inches in the back.
Fsport lowering springs drop you
1.0 inches in the front and 0.8 in the back.
