Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM) and PASM sports suspension.
PASM, the electronic damping control system, continuously adjusts the damping force on each wheel, based on current road conditions and driving style. In addition, the body sits 10mm lower.
The 911 GTS Coupé models are equipped with the PASM sports suspension. The ride height has therefore been lowered by a further 10mm.
The springs are harder and shorter, and the anti-roll bars on the front and rear axles are stiffer. The front spoiler lip is larger, and the rear spoiler extends even further.
Not only does this help to reduce lift at the front axle, it also acts to increase downforce at the rear axle. Improved aerodynamics represent another boost for performance – combined with a high level of comfort.

PASM drops the car 10mm from a standard car. PASM Sports drops the car a further 10mm ( so 20mm lower than a standard Carerra ).
The 911 GTS is equipped with the PASM Sports suspension. It therefore sits 20 mm lower. The springs are harder and shorter and the anti roll bars both front and rear are stiffer. The PASM and PASM Sports ( as fitted to the GTS ) can be optioned on the Carerra / S models.

Yep this is what I know to be the case, so I'm thinking as the spec sheet says PASM and not PASM Sport or "SPASM" then this can must just be -10mm?
Just confused as most literature says the car sits on -20mm PASM as standard
Pretty annoying if so - I really like the rest of the spec but want the lower stance

On the spec sheet for mine, under 'standard options' it lists:
PASM sports suspension (20mm lowered)
As posted above, if it's a 991.2 GTS Coupe, it's 20mm lower as standard.

Ah thanks for that, this one doesn't say that, just PASM so mush have been optioned without the sport suspension!

Magic919 said:Usual concern is lack of clearance. Car park ramps, driveways and speed humps. Front lift would negate that.
