Wow your car certainly was sitting pretty high. 12 years and 125K miles have done nice things to the height of my car.

Looks good!

I don't have a clue why, most of the other SS's I have seen weren't like that so who knows. I have seen a few WS6's like that though.

It wasnt really noticeable until it was next to Sean and Larry's cars. I went with the Eibach Pro Kit. Are you going on Saturday to Daytona?
