are you looking for just an agressive street car? does the car see any track time? do you plan on competing in any auto x events?
coilovers offer the best in handling but it gets annoying with how stiff they can be. with them being stiff, your interior starts to rattle apart as well. Suspention is just like go-fast parts and its pretty expensive. what are you looking at spending?

Define corner carver.... My car out corners most factory cars up to and including M3's... It's also not as street friendly as most people would like.
the 05+ suffer from a bit of push for most skilled drivers so you'll want to drop the ride height with stiffer shorter springs, stiffen the front sway bar and put some wider lower profile wheels and tires on it. After that start with tubular lower control arms in the rear and poly-urethane bushings spread about like butter. That gives you the hardware to make a good run, then you'll need to identify if it's being tight or loose in turns, how well it turns-in, and how well it stays on line in the exits and we can tune it from there.
It comes with coil-over in the front and the rear is pretty well set up to start with.
