    I am looking to add an F12 to the garage within the next 12-18 months and am getting conflicting information regarding the ability to lower the car (on its stock suspension) while being able to retain the lift function.

    I lowered my 2008 Scud to European spec (approx. 19mm) on its stock suspension and it really improved the look of the car.

    I don’t plan on tracking my F12 and would like to avoid changing the coil overs, but the slope of my new driveway requires the lift function.

    I would like to lower the F12 the same amount as I lowered my 430 Scuderia.

    Thank you to anyone that has any input.

    Yes, I haven’t gotten around to doing it myself yet but you can still lower with the front lift, you just can’t lower as much. If I recall from those who lowered with the lift they said they could lower 10-12mm on the front stock coilovers and springs. Beyond that you’ll need Novitec or TDF springs.

    I did it on mine.
    The distance you will lower it is up to the oem height of your car, they are not all set the same.
    Mine get lowered about 15mm front with one residual safe thread under the nut.
    The rear get lowered only 10mm to keep a nice stance and it stays at least 12 threads under the nut.
