Welcome to MBWorld! 
Yes, the way the car is set, it will normally be lower in the front than the rear...but like Enri said, "unless you get coilovers".

welcome....
had to post ***** as well... but i want to add... the wheel well cut out on the rear is substanially smaller than the cut out on the front... gives the optical illusion that the rear is lower than the front. Tein lowered my car equally front and rear... the front tire is filling the fender hole, where as the rear tire is "tucked" up into the fender.

drex...
i wonder if that is becuase the added length of the trunk on the sedan? I barely remember jr. high... but if i recall the further away something is from the axis point every bit of weight makes a significant difference.... OH LEVERAGE! had a big night last night..
so i am thinking, because of the sedan trunk, and your ability to add more weight, you must need that extra "play" to absorb the extra weight...
-OR-
theory # 2.... are the rear wheel wells the same diameter on the sedan and coupe?
