you said the same thing i did. the floor remains at the stock height, and the body is lowered over the frame. the name (at least to my knowledge of hotrods) is channeling. "stock floor body drop" must be what they are calling it on newer cars.

And as for the frame not sticking out, it doesn't actually stick out, but it can be seen from the side. it is inside/under they body. and as for most of them not showing, it's because most cars today are either unibody or space frame; not too many are body over frame anymore.

I'm not here to argue, but it seems like we both have a knowledge of cars, just maybe I'm using older terms referring to hotrods, and you're talking about newer cars.
