Does anyone know if the stock suspension that comes with this model car is sports? I am considering purchasing a set of Sports suspension and am told it will lower my car approx an inch. Just verifying ...thanks

In 1996 there was no "sport" package for the A4. In 1997 there was no sport suspension either but, I know a guy who paid the dealer extra for sport struts and springs as a dealer only type option. The first year that you could actually get upgraded suspension on the A4 was 1998.
The sport suspension will lower your car a little bit. Unless you are getting the sport suspension for less than $200 per corner of the car, you should just buy a set of sport springs new and a set of Bilstein sport struts. You'd probably spend $650-800 depended upon where you buy from.

Thanks for the info. I am actually looking at the ones being sold in Audi Classifieds...
"the suspension is out of a 98 audi a4 only 45 k on it and it inclused both the struts and the springs it should lower the car a good inch at least
the jey set is everything u need just put it all in and ur are set"
This is what the seller said. I am not doubting it, just getting more opinions...i hope they are what I am looking for.
