I added the Z06 Stage 2 splitter to mine, and it might not be 2 inches (figure of speech), but it's pretty low, less than 4 and even perhaps less than 3. I'd have to get out the tape measure but I'd say its the lowest ground clearance I've ever had. Side skirts TBH might even be lower (again I need to measure)

But the comment still stands, you can't drive it in deep snow without it becoming a plow. My Focus ST which I drove in the winter would frequently become a plow, but that was due to the "wind deflector" under the engine. I know the Corvette is lower than that, and the Focus ST would do it at 4/5 inches.

(I know you're looking to pick a fight on the 2 inch comment for some reason).

EDIT: Braved the garage, it's hard to get an exact measurement since I have my car up on FlatStoppers, but its between 3-4 inches. Which is still ridiculously low!

Everyone has their own opinion for how THEIR car should be treated. And EVERY ONE of those opinions are correct! Maybe not for everyone, but for them it is! To each their own....
