I have 73,314 miles on my car and I would like replace my suspension. The origional suspension feels too rough now. How much would it cost? What should I go with? I'm looking for firmness but not ride jolting firmness? I would appreciate all of your SHO expertise!

Jon - start by replacing all rubber bushings on strut rods, swaybars and endlinks with poly. Also replace your rubber subframe bushings. If you don't want harshness stay away from aluminum - there are some options better than rubber.

If you do it yourself, this will really tighten up your SHO for less than $250.

Once the suspension is in good working order you can think about spring and strut options.
