i say drop it, but do it the right way. springs, struts, and a camber kit. that'll be around $500 or a little more. lowering your car helps with handling, acceleration, breaking, etc. if you'd rather get coilovers so you can adjust the ride height then you can do that too, but i had coilovers on my old car and the ride quality sucks. i'm going with springs this time around.
