60th Anniversary Track Pack not the old Track Pack?

Trying to buy a 60th, which comes with Sport and Track Pak. Lotus is saying it doesnt have adjustable ride height. Saw another thread indicating this Track Pack isn't what it used to be, which can be seen here.

What does the 60th NOT have that is listed in the above thread?

I have looked at the 60th and while I am not sure what the spring rates are, the shocks are remote reservoir and ride height adjuster wrenches are there. Also braided brake lines (!) and an adjustable front anti-roll bar (5 holes).

Thanks Sam! There is some conflicting info out there. So you saw wrenches, but not the actual threaded bodies. The wrenches were in the trunk, or where exactly? Thanks again for the info, Im feeling better about this now.

I crawled on the dealer's floor to look specifically for the rear track brace and I saw that and the adjustable shock valve settings, the 5-hole anti roll bar up front and the wrenches in the trunk. I didn't look for the ride height adjusters because my understanding is that the adjustable Bilsteins have that period. The bonus(es) in the 60th are braided lines, harness bar and the appearance stuff. Don't trust me alone, though; get a second/third opinion or ask a knowledgable sales person. Dan (ISellLotus) at Criswell in Maryland would probably help you, they have a black 60th on the floor.

I have a black 60th, but don't know about the ride height and brake lines - I picked it up while home on R&R from Afghanistan and drove it briefly. I'll take a look myself when I'm back next week
