PFF News 9/2023: Investment bei Ferdineo + PFF Prämie für E-Autos + Zuwachs im Team

    Hello, I ordered today a 992 GTS Cabrio, my dealer has recommended me to choose the PASM and lift system.

    My question now, if I understand the description at Porsche correctly, this actually makes no sense. Since the car is then not lowered by 10mm, but comparable to a normal 992, Or?

    Is the GTS with PASM lower than a normal 992 e.g. version S ?

    Description from Porsche:

    "Chassis with electronically controlled damping system and two manually controllable driving modes ("NORMAL" and "SPORT"). The lowering of the body by 10 mm as well as the helper springs on the rear axle are omitted.

    Kind regards Andreas

    Correct...the GTS in stock trim is 10mm lower than the S. So if you choose the PASM, it will go to the level of the S and all the advantages on the suspension of the GTS are gone.

    Lift is a matter of faith but I am now no longer surprised when you look at various equipment of the used on the known portals, which is often due to the knowledge of many sellers of their own products and their subsequent recommendations.🙄

    Very theoretical consideration. Whether 1 cm higher or lower is not noticed! This does not result in any advantages or disadvantages.

    Buy a Carrera 4 or Boxster 718 or 911 Rallye.

    You don't need a GTS if you order PASM and Lift. :old:


    One of the USPs of the GTS is the suspension with the helper springs!

    Don't understand people who order GTS with leather interior, PASM and without ZV.

    Who does not want a cool chassis does not need the 30 hp more power.


    Lift system is a matter of faith. I have never needed it, neither on the road nor in various underground garages. Okay, the unpainted plastic spoiler in front scrapes maybe a bit from below....

    It is very badly represented in the configurator. PASM has GTS series, if you tick that, you get the softer chassis of the Targa or Carrera S series, really stupidly displayed in the configurator.


    You should avoid checking this box, since the crisp standard suspension is precisely the character of the GTS. It is also still quite comfortable.


    The Carrera S sports suspension with minus 10 mm is sportier if you tick "PASM" on the GTS in the configurator.


    That should rather have been called "PASM comfort suspension" in the configurator.

    Here, me!


    Targa GTS with leather and without ZV. Porsche simply doesn't want to give the Targa a "cool chassis".


    As for the lift system, I am not a believer but a knower.

    Experience (with 991.2 without lift) makes wise.

    Thanks for the tips, then I was already right :)


    Will change my order to that effect, GTS series chassis without PASM hook in the configurator. Since I like the firmer chassis and the optics (10mm lower) very well.

    Liftsystem remains, because I now already with my 992 S when driving on my TG slightly sitting up front.


    Kind regards Andreas

    Good decision

    After an extensive test drive I must confess that I would take the normal suspension PASM without these fabled "helper springs" because a good rest of comfort is more important to me. I do not see that with the -10mm. Voderachslift would not be an option for me. I would advise everyone to test drive both versions and then decide.
