What ease do coilovers offer over springs? More things to adjust makes it much more complicated, not simpler.
Unless you're actually going to adjust ride height and have the car corner balanced, having adjustable spring perches is a waste of money. Unless you're going to learn how to properly adjust the shocks (and have people to help you learn), having that adjustability can actually make it handle much worse. A better use of money is to get good shocks that aren't adjustable, and good springs (like a Bilstein/RCE tarmac, or swift spec R combo), and just enjoy the car.
As for buying one part at a time... if you get coilovers (or springs), you'll need an alignment since you're pulling the suspension apart. If you get the camber adjustment parts, you'll need another alignment. There's nothing to gain by waiting (unless you need time to save the $$$) to do the camber adjustment later.
