It's not really that significant UNLESS there is something different when it's supposed to be exactly the same car. 15mm is about the average lowering in Porsche sport suspensions, BMWs, Hondas, etc so if 15mm is the difference in reality than it means something IS different, which COULD be significant. The height itself is not, but the parts that are causing it to be different might be.
The 2) Subaru's in the mag test both had different suspension as well as different tires. It is possible that both manufactures can use shocks as well as different tires which will change the specs. They'll be identical with the same but there will be a slight variation.
