Is my car lowered?

I bought it used and I swear it sits a little lower than the neighbors down the street.

It looks stock. It is possible that totally stock cars may sit slightly higher or lower than another (we are talking millimeters here but it can be noticeable) especially when you are talking V6 versus SS.

We have seen up to a 1/4" in ride height variance on the V8 cars. This is on stock, completely untouched cars. Cars with suspension mods vary even more mainly because of installation differences. A car came in here on Tuesday that had a set of lowering springs and sway bars on it. The car looked like it was sitting too high so we re-clocked the bushings and it dropped another 1/4" in the front and 1/8" in the rear!

Like BMR mentioned there can be some variation in ride height as they come out of the factory. Your car looks like it's at stock ride height though.

Is your neighbor's car a V6? Every one of them I've seen sits noticeably higher than mine.
