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,

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 read the thread instead of the title.....I think we are past the newbie question and onto lowering springs and ta vs camaro stances.
