Yeah mine was the same way too. I asked them about it and they thought I was crazy because they looked at the one other RS1 on the lot and said it was the same height in the front. Before I left the dealer I was digging through the paperwork in the glovebox and there was a big red paper that said REMOVE SPRING SPACERS AFTER CUSTOMER PURCHASES THE VEHICLE (or something like that lol).

When I showed the service manager all he said was "oh..." LMAO

Took the car back to Toyota today with the paper that was in the glovebox that states to make sure the spring spacers are removed before delivery. They took the car back and they noticed the spacers were there. They told me it was not part of the delivery checklist they have so they did not know to look for the spacers. They said this was the first time they had to remove spacers. What I don't understand is someone put the notice in the glovebox that the spacers needed to be removed so wonder how it was missed. Just glad it is completed now.
