Default 2003 Rides Real Low

Hey Everyone,

I recently bought a 2003 50th Anniversary Coupe with only 3,800 miles on it, that appears to be like a brand-new car that was frozen in time, with one exception: It seems like the car rides lower than the factory intended. I do have a frame of reference, in that I bought a new C5 coupe in 2001 and drove it for five years. This car seems to ride lower that that one did and rides rougher. Any thoughts/observations/questions? I have not put it up on the rack yet to see if it has been messed with. And yes, it has the original tires on it, that look new but are as hard as concrete... I will be putting on new ones shortly!

Supposedly it is bone-stock, and does appear that way in every other respect.

I will try to take a few pics and measurements when I get home from this trip.
