i think its just simple stock ride height = fine on stock car... any rims/mods = start lowering it for a better overall look. how much you lower depends on your comfort zone/road conditions/daily route.
wheres your bags tom? o_O

no, but to have Sportier handling, yes, they do. and "SC" does stand for "Sports Car", so it would be ideal to replace/upgrade with Sports components. 
DON'T DRIVE AN SC in those conditions. Thats not what its meant for. Drive a jeep, SUV or some other 4x4 rugged vehicle. That's why many people only drive their SC in the summer/good weather, to fully enjoy what the car was intended for.
simple: Drive carefully. i dodge potholes and go slow sideways on speed bumps every single day.
SC factory suspension feels like pure sluggish **** to me. i'm one of the many people who prefer to lower the car's center of gravity(thus improving handling/minimizing body roll) and i feel more 'comfortable' when i feel the road more. 'Comfort' is subjective.
there's technically no need to do any mods to an SC either, if that's the case.
Because it improves certain aspects of a sports car and makes it look sexy. did i just say sexy? yes, SEXY.
because this is forum where 99% of the owners on here use the database/info to somehow assist with ideas in which to modify their sc's. But I guarantee every SC you see on the road is not modded. Its typically a rare sight.
you just said it yourself: "just plain can't afford..."
I hope i answered all your aching questions.
