I take no responsibility for any of the information in that thread, but it seems to be people who have done it before.

Not another dime.
I have made a slight change to the rear but not touched the front so not 100% sure. I think both front and rear but I will verify tomorrow morning.
FWIW, I'm that guy who used to go camping in the desert with a variety of sporty cars that had larger wheels and lowered suspension. Didn't go fast, but I got there and back without damaging anything.
On the other hand, I've owned two sporty cars since moving to SE TX, and in both cases, decided that it just wasn't worth it around here. There are no good fun driving roads within hours. I've given up and bought an AWD box on wheels from a company known for making supremely reliable transportation.

I would SO love to rock that as my winter car to drive to the Denver airport.
As it is, it’s an E46 M3 with winter wheels and tires. And, of course, I’d already swapped to summer tires before we got 18” (no shit) of snow last weekend.
But I’ll be dreaming of that rally Cayman tonight.
TLDR - I’ll be in my bunk.
Verified; Front and rear of a C7 are height adjustable.
SiL and BiL have this housing on their back porch and can’t remember what it goes to. He’s messed with Beetles over the years and their son has messed with Hondas and Beetles so the guess is it belongs to one of those 2 families.

I just spent about ten days thrashing a 595 Abarth Turismo through the mountain hairpins of the Italian Dolomites and the Swiss Alps. The seating position is higher than in most sporty cars, and it’s roomy enough inside that you forget you’re in one of the smallest cars on the road (even in Europe), until you really push it in the curves (phrasing) and it handles like a small car should. Super fun.
Also saw a smattering of other cool stuff not seen in the US:
Overshadowed by a nice Defender in the last photo is a cool little 3-door Land Cruiser. I saw a few of them over there.

Background: wife has a mini-van, for her home business, it fits the 5 of us. My 2016 Subaru Outback no longer comfortably fits me, her, and the 15yo boy, and the 2 younger girls.
So, we have suitable family transportation. The younger girls are still in car seats, but ageing out of even that. She pointed out to me that I am not required to have a car that will move all/most of the family around.
Item: she doesn't really like driving the Outback.
Item: she'd prefer to not use her car to get groceries, do errands on those times when she's not carting kids around.
Item: I commute ~70 miles round trip 2 days a week, because after working from home for >2 years we can't be trusted at home any more than that. Most of that is interstate, last few miles congested city traffic in not-quite rush hour density.
Item: she would like to solve her issues by me changing vehicles to, quote: "something more fun [for me] to drive."
Having read this thread in it's entirety, I know the default answer is Miata. We will test drive a Miata, I'm honestly curious.
My question is, what if the Miata doesn't work. What's next on the suggestion list that hits many of the same checkboxes?
