I'd call them and/or the US site and ask about the sale pricing, though.

I really like the looks (and thought of having) that lift.
Why compare to a new Camry? Why not compare against one with similar age and miles?
While there is no doubt that driving enjoyment is higher and as you said unquantifiable, it is certainly not as economical.
Is there a car that can offer more fun at this price point? Maybe not
Is there a more economical way of commuting? Yes
But a car isn't just for commuting for us, it's much more. At least that's what I tell myself

I think we can bring the ratio down for the Camry. Put some coilovers on, and some reverse-staggered wheels/tires to reduce the understeer. Though with 268 horses on tap, you might be entering ZHP slayer territory.

Alright boiiiis I grabbed some pics and measurements earlier. I only had a 20 minute window, but I managed to get the car up, take these pics, pull all four wheels, swap the spacers front to rear, torque everything down, and drive it out of the garage. Mission was accomplished, but it looks like I didn't get all of the pictures that I was after. Here is what I have:
Lift collapsed under the frame rail. Tons of clearance with the car on stock suspension/tire sizes. Should be fine for nearly any lowered zhp.
The lift comes with 8 rubber blocks. 4 large, 4 small. I used the large block in the front:
And the large block with a piece of 1x4 in the rear:
You'll notice that the blocks are about 1-2 inches shy of fully covering the jack pads. Such is life with the 3500 model. Doesn't bother me, though. Just takes some care with positioning.
Here's my comparison photo showing how high you would have to set a jack stand to get the same height as the lift in the high position:
And with that I found a nice method for positioning a jack stand as a safety in case the locking arm fails:
I measured at the fender peak and got just over 13" height increase. This confirms that the claimed 20" of lift is measuring from the floor, so the rack with both blocks (large/small) stacked at each corner will be 7" high and raise up 13" from that point.
So you could always drive up on some boards and stack blocks of wood with the rubber blocks to get more height. I'm very happy with the height as it was tonight, though. Hopefully I'll get some time under it this weekend to have a better feel for it.
