Default One side lower than the other?

i never noticed it til a few days ago that my driver's side is about a quarter inch lower than my passenger side. i do not have anything inside the car that makes it lower on one side. so i was wondering if this is common for the 1st gen LS's? its not really a problem since it does look nice but was just wondering if this is common.

Mine is the same way. it also depends the surface you parked your car on.

My GF's 98 Prelude's driver side is 3/4" lower than the passenger side! lol

Some noob must have chopped the springs themselves before she got it!

its a commonly known issue, its due to the battery being on the extreme drivers side, it also occurs on 2LS.
