Welcome, very nice GGP IS300 so far. I think it is a nice drop, maybe you don't like it because you want a bigger drop and lucky for you live in Florida, which has nice smooth roads. To get a much bigger drop you need coilovers, which are expensive, but there are some deals out there.

Welcome to CL

Here is a link to a thread requesting similar information.
