Default New Stance of A6 2.7t with the Sports Package

Does anyone have the new 2.7T with the new sports package? My dealer just got one in and the back of the car is dramatically lower than the front. Almost looked like the trunk had been loaded with something. Just curious if this is what the new sport suspension is suppose to do. Thanks.

Yes. 20mm lower on a 4.2 achieved by sport suspension setup.

No. My PSK sits level. I think the 20mm number is about right.

Default Steve is correct (more)

My bad - late night fuzzy reading. Yes the car is 20mm lower, but no the back and front ARE level. Apologies.

My 2.7T PSK sits about level. There maybe just a tad more vertical clearance between tire and wheel well in the front than in the back, I cannot really tell from where I'm looking, but nothing dramatic anyway. I try to measure tonight and post what I find.

P.S.(K): Question for the forum: Is there anything installation-dependent in the resulting height? Or does it depend entirely on the springs used?

I'm 95% sure its the spring/shock setup.
