Question on ride height
Two or three people have already asked me if my car has been lowered, not by me, but i don't know if the previous owner did. I read someone put AMG Springs european, he reported close to 27" from floor to fender lip (I guess highest point)
My car measured 27" in the front and 26 7/8" in the rear, has it been lowered? What is the standard height for an E55?

Thanks

Wow, is this such a difficult question? I'm amazed nobody has responded anything.

From the pictures I have seen of your car it is not lowered. It is not as low as euro spec car.

Your car does not appear to be lowered, nor does it appear to have the euro suspension. It looks like a stock US (and high) E55.
