Default Couple of questions about SVR

Anyone who has gone from a non-SVR F Type to a SVR, can they help with a few questions thanks:

1. is the SVR lower? I have some clearance issues with my driveway;
2. do yellow calipers mean carbon ceramic brakes, and if yes they squeaky when they are cold?
3. any obvious negatives about changing?
4. the F Pace SVR gets supercharger whine in the cabin but I havent heard it in the F Type SVR videos. Is it there?

Responses really appreciated.

I'm not an SVR owner, but I can answer some of these:

1. No. Per Jag's website, they are they same height.
2. Yes, yellow calipers are the carbon ceramic brakes
3. Yes, the goofy spoiler. But that's about it. I have seen some cars without it
4. I hear supercharger whine in my R, so I'd think so.

While I don't own a SVR I have driven one and do on a 16 f type R.

1. If anything the SVR will sit hight only because of the bigger tires which have a taller ratio, now this isn't even 1/4 of an inch so its nothing id call a change but it is higher.
2. carbon ceramic yes they are yellow calipers , they will also say carbon ceramic matrix system on them or something of that sort.
3. there are no negatives, cosmetically that is all an opinion based, I will say the SVR spoiler looks better then the R flap spoiler when up.
4. no noticeable supercharger whine increase.
