Add ground clearance around 5 inches. Sometimes has been reported as 4.75, but I believe 5.+ is correct. The P4 was lowered one inch. But not having the exhaust vulnerable to manhole covers (which nails 'em in Manhattan) is one reason for re-routing the exhaust in the P5. And a good reason for not setting GC too low.

Paul said the ground clearance is comparable to a contemporary Mustang. That was in 2013. The 2015 mustang is 5.1 inches, which is closer to the 4.75 figure. I sure hope it's higher; ultra low ground clearance causes problems in snow, on gravel roads, and on curb-cuts. I once had a car with 4" ground clearance and it was a nightmare getting in and out of Macdonalds.

Yea I've had some Miatas, they are about 4.5", I lived with them for years and really didn't have too much trouble with it, some scraping on speed bumps, but never got hung up on anything.
