and Tein is guilty of nothing. They do not advertise their EDFC as height adjustable. Fraud? not at all...
I sense some hostility in your post... correct me if I'm wrong...

I just got off the phone with Gordon @ Carson Toyota LTuned.
In his words: " Those guys don't know what they are talking about."
He said that with the EDFC I can raise and lower my SC from inside the cab like I want! I think I will stick to the coilovers w/edfc. I want to have a luxury ride when I want and still be able to adjust my suspension on the fly to have fun on canyon roads.
Oh ya and slam it when I go to a meet or show!

If you want to use it as a daily driver then Lowering Springs is the #1 option, but air bags is the next best alternative for comfort and ease if you want to dump it and you aren't going to the track or anything.
Coilovers would be best for a track car since it will help with your cornering and all of that the most, but it is hell on roads on how it rides; most people take it off when using it as a DD. the EDFC adjusts how soft or stiff the springs are which relates to the ride quality, the softer the smoother your ride is... the stiffer the harder it is but better handling you have.
to adjust the height of coilovers you will have to manually adjust each one and it will take roughly 4 hours or so doing it yourself if you know what you are doing. otherwise you will have to pay someone each time you want to do it for a show or what not.
air bags you can dump it at a show and bump it back up to get over speed bumps and stuff for daily driving.
trust me, that guy doesn't know what the hell he is talking about

not as good, yet more comfortable and much easier for height adjusting. also air bags are very expensive
i would ONLY put coilovers on a track car.
otherwise its purely for bragging rides and you're gonna give your back hell on roads with pot holes

Good choice on going with the Air suspension. I'll be installing the UAS www.universalairsuspension.com kit on my sc400. If you have questions about it let me know.
