When the bags aren't fully inflated it pretty bouncy but its not uncontrollable. When I'm at "ride height" its a comfortable ride. I'm not about to go out and try and auto-x on this set up, but its fun. I have the compressor and all the valves in the spare tire well so as you can imagine its a little noisy, but the false floor muffles it alot, turn the stero up and you never notice its there

.
As for cost, I did pick it up as a used "kit" from another member on here. I use the term "kit" loosely as there were many parts I have replaced, modified, rewired, etc. In total I have right at a grand into it which is less than a 1/3 of the price of a new kit.
The air ride is a ton of fun to play with and its defiantly unique. I love that when I park I can literally set the fender on the wheel/tire and when I get ready to leave it jumps up and I drive off with no worries of speed bumps. I don't drive the car every day anymore so I think air was the perfect option for me. Would I recommend it to every one? probably not.
Like I said already, the air ride is just plain fun.
