Default Stock ride height ???

Is there anyone who could measure there sc400 from the floor to the top of the front wheel arch and the floor to the rear arch. Mine just seems lower than most i see drive by. I want to lower it more but the car is already pretty low. Thanks

if no one has a tape measure could you just tell me how many fingers can you fit in the front and rear fenders above the tires on the stock suspension. The way my car sits now its 2 in front and rear.

Many people have asked me how low my car is and I really dont know what to tell them. Could someone please measure the height from the floor to the middle of the arch? I would like the measurements for the front and rear. Any help will cure my curiosity.

uhh......... my car isnt stock height.

EDIT: i guess i didnt make myself clear in my above post. I wanted to know how low my car is compared to a car that is stock height. i did a search and this is the thread i found. instead of creating another thread, i just hopped on this one since the title of the thread is "stock ride height." there are no stock SC's parked in my apt or my work, otherwise i would walked up to those cars and measured them myself.
