Default Question regards stock suspension on S4

My co-worker is thinking of buying S4, 01 or 02 what is on the lot, well today I went with him to local dealer, and he tested three S4, tip, and two 6-speed, and I have a question which salesman couldn't answer, when we looked at those S4 on the lot, at the wheel gap, each of them had different height of the wheel gap, one S4 (6-speed)in the front berly could fit three fingers, and berly two fingers at the back, where other two were higher then another one, all three were new cars none of them pass 20 miles.. so we started to looking around the lot and few S4 were like that.. why is that ?

Can you look at the front suspension arms and tell us if they are black or silver?
