Daily driver coilovers...asking for suggestions

[Yarflana]

Here are the inputs:

Current setup:
1) Car is a 2008, base model, 1.5L 3 door with 100K on it
2) Suspension is currently all stock
3) Wheels and tires are new and sizes are as follows: wheels 16x7; tires 205/50/16s Kumho...I really like this combination because the wheels/tires are just inside the fenders, but fill out the wheel wells nicely in anticipation for dropping it
4) Getting a TRD sway bar (the red one) installed next week
5) Megan racing axle-back (thanks to Garm at Micro for this one)
6) K&N CAI
7) Budget - very open

Desire:
1) Better suspension that I can adjust both height and dampening to suit my taste
2) Drop it 1-1.5" without needing to roll the fenders...just want a classy drop with out having to do any further custom work
3) Want to just be able to bolt on the new suspension without having to do much else than adjust it and get an alignment...I am handy enough with tools and read the DIYs here extensively
4) Want this to continue to be my continued daily driver where I put about 70 miles a day on it 5 days a week. This car will NOT be raced or see a track.
5) As far as stiffness, I would like it stiffer than stock at the minimum and max very stiff (not sure that makes sense, but keep in mind this would be a daily driver). Just want a lot of flexibility if possible.

I am going to talk to Micro (Garm/Jeff) about what they suggest, but I am interested in any thoughts from those with coilovers and their rides are strictly daily drivers that want to look good and have very good handling when desired.

With all that in mind, what would y'all recommend?

Thanks for any input and don't sweat my budget as I am rather open.
