The sports suspension doesn't drop the car, the ride height is exactly the same with sports or normal suspension.

Pretty sure the sport pack, at least on the DB9 does drop the car a nominal amount but I do not recall how much. Not sure about the Vantage.......

If you check the manual for the vantage, you'll see that there is no height difference with the sports suspension, which confirms the view I had from the dealer. If you see two cars side by side, one with sports and one with standard, you will see that they are at the same height.

There are aftermarket tuners that offer lower suspension, maybe that is the package you're thinking about?

SP does not lower the Vantage but it does on the DB9
AM have done a great setting up the different suspension package
If it ain't broke don't fix it!

You guys are right, from what I could dig up the SP lowers the DB9 6mm and the V12V essentially has the sports pack suspension with a 15mm drop. I agree that it is a great set up mikey!
