Cincinnati Help?

Hi, odd request here... I'm in Delhi, OH (Cinci West Side) and I'm thinking of getting a BRZ. The only problem is that my driveway isn't nice and flat at the base. According to Edmunds the ground clearance on my current car (05 Mustang) is 0.8" more than the BRZ. I get in fine, but my friend with an e36 m3 with an eibach suspension can't get in. I don't think the BRZ is that low. My wife has an 09 Fusion (edmunds lists 2010 fusion clearance as 5.2", 0.3" higher than the BRZ, I can't find 2009 clearance #s) and that gets in and out fine.

I just want to make sure I can get it in the garage before I buy one. I'd just take a test drive home, but I'm about 20 miles from the dealership and they're not keen on letting me put 40+ miles on a new car (I can't blame them).

So, would anyone with a BRZ (or FRS) mind coming over this weekend and seeing if they can park in my driveway? If so, please PM me and I'll give you the address.

Thanks,
Ryan

Huge thanks to "bakerr6" for stopping over last night for a test park. The car made it up the driveway just barely. If I end up getting one I definitely won't be lowering it.
