Springs sag over time, his suspension is probably sagged, or it's not stock, or the springs have been cut. Turbos are also heavier, making them sit lower.

My one friend actually raised his car with Eibach 0.8 inch lowering springs. He used to drag coming in the driveway and after the spring upgrade, he didn't.

My car was lower than his before and considerably lower after. (Bone stock.)

Springs sag quite a bit over time, expecially considering that my car could have voted in the last presidential election.
