MRC worth it?

I've googled this and read several discussions about it mainly on vette forums... most people seem to say once you use it you will never want to go without it


How do you guys feel about it? I am ordering very soon

Unless you're going to full on track your car, then you could probably do better something else.

But if like most of us, your car will do more duty driving around city streets and country roads, the MRC will shine in tour mode making crappy roads less crappy feeling.

This 100%

My first experience was a ZR1. I was taken down a rough road in track/sport. Then we turned on tour and went down the same road and it was like a smooth road.

Talking with a buddy of mine who sells performance GM parts. He said the C6 had a generation 2 of MRC and the C7 has a generation 3 that's even better. I can only imagine how amazing it's going to make the Camaro feel

Depends.

If you are going to track it a lot, no. Aftermarket upgrades of the struts/shocks/springs or a swap to coilovers will yield better results.

If you aren't daily driving it or don't care about a softer, more compliant ride then no as well.

The main advantage MRC offers is a good track ready suspension setup, that then can be tuned to ride better on regular roads for daily driving and such.

I track my car a lot and got MRC. Mostly because I live on a horrible road that makes my current car with coilovers feel like it's rattling apart. Pfadt said they plan on making components for MRC equipped Camaros (including ride height adjustability if that's your thing).

I got it for a smoother ride during daily commutes. Very much worth it to me.

Yeah. I don't hold my breath when it comes to them but that would be a great add-on.

I used to drive a 2002 BMW m5 and I liked the stiff suspension in sport mode how does The MRC compare to 2002 BMW m5 suspension? I want stiff suspension.
