Sport Suspension V. Stock Suspension - Lower?
Does the Sport Suspension option lower the car at all? Or are all the cars the same ride height unless modified with after market springs/coilovers?

Affirm, the sport (or S-line) is lower than standard suspension. Not sure how much, but roughly 1.5-2" I would guess. Also the sport suspension has a larger rear sway bar.

Sport Suspension lowered the car by 20mm (roughly 0.8 inches), and has a slightly thicker rear sway bar (18mm)
Here are the rear sway bar size for all B7s:
Non Sline: 16mm
Sline: 18mm
S4: 20mm
RS4: 22mm
Most non-sline people will do aftermarket spring/struts or sports suspension, and RS4 rear sway bars (cost the same as other bars)
All the front sway bars on the B7 are the same size.

Sport suspension also adds an upper front stiffening bar (approx 1" by 1/4" by 36") - have a look just in front of the battery in the engine firewall area.
