Message	and my good friend (who owns many high performance cars) both told me. They feel that a low mileage, pristine stock car will always be the car to own long term, and so therefore I should go with the OEM's to keep the car as stock as possible. The only thing is that I'm pretty sure that the Konis and Bilsteins are far better shocks, and since I can buy the Bilsteins for $200 less than the OEM's (which would about pay for the install), I hate to spend more to possibly get less, if you know what I mean.
