C4S v. C2 030 suspension

While I have driven both, it wasn’t on the same roads so it was hard for me to compare ride quality. Can anyone with more experience let me know whether one is more comfortable than the other on rough roads? I drove a 2002 C2 with standard suspension after the 2004 C4S and the ride was significantly smoother. I won’t be tracking the car but will be using it as a 6 month daily driver over some pretty rough roads in the Northeast.

I have a Turbo with ROW and a C2 with ROW M030. The Turbo rides better, not as "crashing" as the C2. I have only driven a C4s a few miles but it felt very simular to my Turbo...

Good luck.

The C4S suspension is harder, but by no means uncomfortable, than the C2 with US M030 Sport suspension. The standard C2 suspension is softest of the three. Yes, the C2 standard suspension is very comfortable especially with 17" wheels.
