I don't like the idea of having "bags" on the car but it is a possibility so I can raise it when I need to. I live in Philly (anybody who's been there knows of the potholes - the streets are almost like off-road streets). My main concern is I want to lower it without spending a lot of money, but I also don't want it to negativley affect the performance or handling. For me this car is performance 1st, looks 2nd.

Thanks for you help!

First drive the Camaro as is for a couple months and then decide whether you still want to lower your new ride or not. I would just use those extra dollars to tweak the suspension. IMHVO of course.
