Has my car been lowered?
I bought my 350z last year and I am about to buy new 19s for my car. I have been looking at pictures but I am unsure if my car has already been lowered. The car is at home I havent checked the suspension and etc. Pardon my ignorance please.
Please have a look at tell me if you think the car is lowered or stock height. Thank you so much in advance guys.

yes it does look lowered...maybe the previous owner cut the springs.
Did you not ask the old owner what he did to it?

says he bought the car last year, so i'm assuming that he hasn't looked at the suspension.

If you can tell the difference between stock springs and lowering springs, take some time to look. Otherwise post a pic of the suspension
