I think it drops the car a weenie bit.. The sport kit uses a lower spring but the same shock, that will lower the car just a little bit more.

^+1 he has a sedan like you so it'd be more comparable. John has a convertible which is going to be a little different.

I love my cup kit. PERFECT amount if drop. I don't know if it's a touring cup kit though; I have heard a few different names for it.
The first two are with 17" wheels so it may appear to be more gap due to the taller tires. There is no gap at all!
This is with 18" wheels:

Yes, drop. Both kits drop the same (I asked the H&R rep), it's the progression rates, etc. that are the different. It's the RACE springs that provide a different drop. And yes, the vert drop is different than a sedan drop.

No clue. The kit was already installed on my car when I bought it, so I have nothing to compare it to.
By visual estimates I would guess 1.2-1.5"? That was completely visual when I compared to Charlie's ZHP.
I have the race springs, offering the most aggressive drop. It is by no means uncomfortable, and looks just right. No gap, but the wheel doesn't tuck behind the fender either in the front. The rear tucks a tiny bit, which is just right for me.
I used to get rubbing on ET40 wheels in the rear before The-friggin'-awesome-Justin-mothatruckin'-Wilson rolled my fenders.

You have nothing to compare it to? How about take your measurements, report, and we'll have someone stock do the same. Let's put this to bed with decent data. Measure from the centerline of the wheel well to the rim bottom edge.No clue. The kit was already installed on my car when I bought it, so I have nothing to compare it to.
