I don't see how a coilovers are going to give you the variable dampening range that the MRC system does. And if you really want to go whole hog, there is a new controller on the market for our MRC systems that actively adjusts each shock depending on how you set up the responses regarding G-force, acceleration, braking, speed, etc. 95% of the folks won't want to spend the money for this new controller for a MRC upgrade, but if you do, it's out there.
Edit: I see I just echoed Ryephile's post. My bad.

I think that MRC is superior to standard shock tech! I don't see how it can be argued. The range of instant adjustability is unbeatable. However, stock shocks for our cars are steel and the valving could probably be improved on as well; an expensive set of coilovers will have forged aluminum bodies and more intricate valving. When upgraded plug-and-play shocks are available on the aftermarket, along with people who have real experience tuning these things via the DSC controller, there won't be a single argument for traditional coilovers
Edit: the ZL1 1LE loses like 60-80lbs just from going to forged aluminum shocks! That's not peanuts for a mostly unsprung component.
