What to look for in Coilovers

Just out of curiosity,
What do you guys look for in your coilovers and why? i.e. Track, AutoX, Street, Daily Driven, quality, handling, lowness factors, etc.

Quality construction, spring rate, lowering maxs and mins to meet your needs, user feedback. All of these are going to help you hone into the setup best for you.
