Default bose...suspension?

http://www.bose.com/controller?event...on_results.jsp

look at the videos.. the speedbump video blew my mind


i had a feeling this would be the next big thing while researching airbag suspension setups last year... i had crude designs drawn up too... o well, my hat's off to mr. bose and his team, this suspension setup is seriously the next generation.

Yip... been workin on it for a while now... they say by 2010 it'll be out... and the first company to get to use it? Cadillac. GM has some deals w/ Bose so GM will get that suspension. But, keep in mind, for the performance minded people, that you probably don't want it... it wont give you the feel of the road that a stiff suspension will. That's for luxury, not performance, even though it can take corners like bitch.

But GM has an actual agreement that they get priority/usage over all other brands... thus GM decided they will have Caddy be the first brand to get it in a few years once it's 100% complete.

Then guess they're free game... but I wouldn't count GM out of it yet... As long as they start turning out move vehicles like the Z06, GMT-900's (their new trucks based on that platform coming out mid '06), Solstice, and so forth and stop building vehicles like their current Malibu, they'll be able to start turning it around.
