The f sport springs drop 1" from the stock height.

If i recall correctly the F/X Sport package drops the car .5" so if you change from that to F Sport springs you will get another .5" drop on the car. Not that much.

If you have memory seats and do NOT have woodgrain then you have the sport package

and the sport package drop is 0.4 inches front-only (no height change in rear) compared to 'stock'

If you have heated/cooled seats and woodgrain, but no memory seats, then you only have the premium package (which is nothing but those 2 things).... the lux and sport package both contain a bunch more items but both include memory seats.

Sport package suspension drops it less than 1" from stock.

F-sport springs on stock, sport pkg, or F-sport shocks will drop the car about 1" all around, a bit more in the back IIRC.
