In fact I would bet that both the 0.4" lower overall height and the claimed lower c.g. are both due to just lowering the car 0.4" on it suspension.
Yeah I also don’t see it as much on the 3/4 shots. The straight on front and rear shots are probably the clearest examples. I’m hoping IRL the second gen will have a nice low sporty look to it. I like the mechanical changes to the car otherwise. Maybe I’ll wait for the gen 2 refresh to see what changes that brings to the exterior.
