a4 = 4 speed automatic
m6 = 6 speed manual

Sorry, but I can't tell what your car is from a side shot...

Next time though, remember, is your friend.

I think Camaro's look that way higher in the rear cause the body line goes downward even with stock springs. Tire sizes will change that too.

You should remove the spacers in the rear.

But anyways my T/A looked lower then my buddys old LT1 camaro but that was just the ground effects he got an LS1 and is still looking at the bird taillights
