I also put MK2 Scirocco sway bars on her car, front and rear, and with Sachs struts all the way around, it handled and rode fantastic.

Pros: fantastic handling, fantastic ride
Vehicle: Volkswagen

If you want to keep the stock ride height, you can probably save the stock springs and run Koni Yellow struts and shocks for a slightly sportier ride.

Pros: sportier ride
Vehicle: Fiat 500

Something else to consider are Koni Reds. I coupled them with Neuspeed Sport springs. The struts are variable response so they absorb the small bumps, like the expansion joints on freeways, but stay stiff for corners.

I had one fail inside the warranty period and Koni made it an easy exchange. No other issues.

Pros: easy exchange, variable response
Cons: one fail inside warranty

The factory Sachs struts are also pretty good. Not sure if the M-Sport got different shocks from the regular sport, but all that's left anymore from Sachs are sport struts. Unfortunately for those of us without the sport package it makes shock replacement a pain, since their resting position is shorter than stock, and makes them shorter than the spring. I never want to do that repair ever again.

Pros: pretty good
Cons: replacement a pain, shorter than stock
Vehicle: BMW

I bought Sachs once and don't know if I was unlucky, but they seemed underfilled. Hit repetitive bumps and they would immediately fade. Tires would bounce like basketballs. I could hear the oil frothing in them.

Cons: underfilled, fade quickly
