    Hi guys, so my local dealer has provided me a really competitive quote to replace all my shocks and springs on my 2010 Cali. The issue is that I know in 2010 that Ferrari didn't really have things dialed in yet and while I'm sure factory new shocks/springs will ride much nicer than my 13 year old blown shocks I can upgrade the suspension entirely for around the same price.

    A local well regarded indy shop suggested this kit:

    https://www.normalguysupercar.com/product/kw-hls-2-front-lift-oem-suspension-upgrade-kit-ferrari-california-2009-2017/

    It's been sold to me as a significant upgrade all around in performance as well as having a lifter, mind you that isn't a huge concern on the Cali but it's a nice option.


    I don't plan to keep this car forever I'm actually shopping for a 458 as we speak. Do you guys think going aftermarket hurts resale even if it's an upgrade? Or even not considering resale just in general am I better off just keeping it stock with the magneride?


    Thank you fellas, I sincerely appreciate any input! Or even if someone has an alternative!

    Who told you the shocks were blown? Are they leaking? Does the car bounce around like a kid in a jumpy castle? Do you have an extremely harsh ride?

    Dealer and the Indy have told me 3 are leaking, it has a pretty harsh ride at the moment I haven't been driving it much.

    Does anyone have any insight in regards to going aftermarket upgrade or staying fully OEM? Money not a factor, they are pretty equal...
