Did I mention that I had Tein Flex Coilovers? I had them adjusted perfectly level when I installed them and I have adjusted them a couple of times since. So, when I say that they don't level out after a turn, it's because I have done the experiments to verify it!

my car was like that when it was new too...I found out two weeks after I got the car. I just brought it back to the dealership and they got me a new set of suspension.

What about the amount of gas in the gas tank? Is the gas tank on the passenger side?

plus, it's not always the passenger side that’s lower... Mine is driver side - even with brand new springs (so it's not my weight)... I think it's just the structural tolerances of the car... some might be spot on, some might be fractions of an inch off...

Figured out why one side was lower than the other side a couple of days ago. I was playing with my LED flashlight and decided to take a look at the rear suspension components. I could see that on the left side, the rubber spring mount was nearly flush with the socket it goes into, however on the right, the spring mount about about 1/4" sticking out from being flush....my guess since it's rubber, they'll settle differently and over time it get lower too...

I should look into this cause my driverside is leaning as well, thanks for the suggestion

Did you have the gas filler tube recall done on your car? IIRC that entails removing part of the suspension on the right side. Maybe they didn't put it back together right.

My G as well, didn't notice it with stock springs, but once I installed my Eibachs.... sure did notice it. 5/16" difference. Drivers side is lower. Took it back to Stillen & they said that some G's come from the factory like that. Can't do anything about it. Like some one said, as owners we want things perfect & we notice everything as myself. Hardly noticable to anyone else.
