i got one
i asked a fellow at nopi last year and he had bags on his 1st gen gs and he said that this car was so heavy that he was doing about 60 or so and his front bags blew when he hit a dip in the interstate and he was riding on nothing...destroyed his tires rims front nose piece, major damage. I think its crazy to do it to such a nice ride. Maybe the guy had the wrong bags, or a cheezy install..but my .02 cents

on all his cars. navigators etc, those are much heavier then a gs. i dont think poping would be a problem. finding a good kit is what im trying to do.

You guys are talking about air suspension, right?
If so, I used to be sceptical about it (reliability), but it ocurred to me that air suspension has been used on passenger buses for quite some time now. Passenger buses get quite a workout, in terms of both time and miles, so reliability should be there.
It's just a matter of time untill the aftermarket picks up on it (I saw a kit for a WRX in SCC magazine ads already).
It must be pretty cool: being able to change both the ride height and the spring rate to suit your driving style/conditions!
