Are users interested in spring/shock upgrades that are more aggressive than stock but better ride quality?

Many folks out there get springs but retain the stock shocks, and once you get past $600-700 then lower end coilovers are usually considered first.

A few of us run the popular RCE Bilstein/spring combo but that gets close to the $1000 mark...

There's a handful of Japanese manufacturers that offer a complete spring/shock combo, but is this something people would actually be interested in buying if available? A lot of lookers but no one actually considering it.
