Default Lower than usual?

So, i purchased this car from an independent dealer, great reviews. but based on some other pics of other RC's, it sort of looks like my car is lower than usual? or maybe it's just me

Was the car new or used? If you jack up the side of the car enough to unload the springs, you should be able to see if they are stock or aftermarket (RSR, Swift, Eibach, etc).

the car was pre-owned. Dealer had great reviews and purchased the car at an auction. Carfax checked out, and showed it only had one previous owner. When i came to pick it up , I asked him if they had lowered it. He mentioned no, i had noticed it was considerably lower than the one i test drove. I didn't mind as i was going to lower it anyways. Ill check this weekend for sure
