In the case of the allroad the car was almost on the ground... In addition the travel of the car can be modified by using the diagnostic tools that correspond with the brand... (so it could be slammed should you so desire)

I specifically did not mention factory installed systems as they are a non issue in this discussion. I was refer purely to after market systems. So the item you quoted is still very true. And no it can not be slammed as they have predetermined hieght adjustments and can not go beyond that and the factory bump stops would keep it from going too far as to have a portion of the body hit the road or a wheel hit the inner fender.
