no lights, softest. One light medium, two lights firm. As far as I know there is a negligible difference in ride height in the three settings, but a noticeable difference in ride. If you hit the button next to the lights, with a picture of a car with an arrow under it, the car goes up about an inch and a half. That will cancel above 75 on the highway.

There are however a number of companies that sell lowering modules that program the computer to drop the car a fair amount... I have no idea how this affects driveability, but this site has many members using the module...

zax basically filled you in. The OEM setup is lowest on the sport II setting, but it really is negligable. For me, the 63s are set a little better.
