Sportspack Suspension Height ?

[curious2]

Any one know on 2010 V8V if car is lower with sporstpack suspension as I can only just clear speed bumps down my road with standard set up.

I'll measure my MY09 car for you later.
I'm not covinced there is a ride height difference seeing mine parked next to a std car.
Main clearance issue is the aero disruptors in front of the front wheels.

I didn't clear the speed bumps at work, until I realised that accelerating at them lifts the front enough to get over them. But it really feels uncomfortable, accelerating at a block of tarmac that has previously hit the front of my car!

Well if it's the same Sportspack suspension that's a retro-fit on all V8V's (essentially the kit used to derive the original N400) then it DOESN'T lower the ride height of the car.

I asked the same question to Rick @ DMS and my dealer (when I had my MY07 upgraded) and both said ride height remains the same.
Unless of course the standard set-up on 2010 models is higher than previous MYs (!?)
Very much doubt that - but I'd simply phone Rick to be 100% sure...

The height is the same as without Sportspack.

Thanks everybody thats really helpful. I will add it the list of desirables when looking for my perfect car !
