S63 ground clearance?

<meant to post under coupe section; no deletion option...>

I'm planning a family vacation that'll take us over the Cascade mountains in December. We'll have winter tires on the car and the drive is beautiful. The only open question in my mind is ground clearance.

Does anyone know what the combined clearance is with the airmattic option set to raised? I wasn't able to find that number. Also, I think it only works under 60 MPH, which is fine on snow and ice.

I know this isn't the wisest choice wrt car for winter mountain drive but the thought of going without the yet to arrive car just sucks.

Thanks in advance,
Dan
