That's a really nice C4. If the FX3 wasn't like a factory option I would say dump the badge. But the car looks awesome otherwise.

There are three variable suspension options located on the center console of the car. They go in order of sport/touring/performance. Each option creates a stiffer more "road hugging" ride quality!

Basically... Its stiffens or softens the shocks depending on which setting you are in!
