I like this concept a lot -- any ideas on how close to reality it may be?

Yummy...any ideas as to cost? I'm figuring probably 2K based on all the hardware, maybe a bit more. I sure hope they do it!

I saw this at SEMA in person last year. Pretty neat, but I'd really want to drive it first to figure out how it's gonna work in the "real world".

I will say it was impressive enough that I got done playing with it (they had the switches next to the car, so you could change the ride height) that I somehow completely MISSED the Ferrari Enzo that was 10 feet away! Fortunately on that one, had another day to go back and drool over the Enzo

Yeah, I definitely wouldn't want to be a first adopter or anything, but after a few adventurous types throw it on...then maybe we're talking.

Does this feel like a real product or vaporware, like so much of the WRX suspension stuff?

Check out the scoob with the Prodrive wing in the background: http://www.praxissystems.com/concept...=c_performance

If you look through the site, the WRX is in the background quite a bit. It looks like they're spending a poopload of money on this with all the testing equipment they show. Hopefully it comes out some time in the next ten years...
