Hi all, currently searching for a 992 Turbo S. There is one available in my perfect spec here: https://finder.porsche.com/gb/en-GB/details/porsch...

However, the car does not have lift and has the -10mm suspension. Is this likely to be a problem in multi storey car parks etc?

I had lift on my 991 GT3 which was essential but I know the turbo bumper at the front doesn't sit as low. Just looking for some real world ownership experiences.

Thanks,
Andrew

I've specked lift on my Turbo S but I've been thinking of deleting it because the front isn't that low, however -10mm on your car could be risky IMO

Definitely fine with no lift on a car without the 10mm drop. With the drop I would be cautious, and I would want lift.

Lift worth having IMO. If in doubt, lift. One scrape and you'll regret not speccing. I've been pondering 992s and I'd want lift on a GT car or Turbo S.

I have a 992 GTS with -10mm suspension. I have Front Axle Lift and it is brilliant and saved me many times. I was in a different area once and didn't think to put lift on whilst going up a ramp (was distracted as was on a call), it scraped slightly but luckily no damage as it was just the rubber piece under the front splitter.

I have lift on a boggo 992.1 C2S on standard PSM (i.e. non-drop). It's true that I don't use it often, but there are some very aggressive speedbumps near me which I can catch the fins in front of the front wheels (which I know isn't that bad) but very happy to be able to lift the nose and not wince to the sound of something grinding.

If I had a more aggressive/expensive setup, I'd be even more keen to have the ability to lift on the odd occasion it were needed.

I’ll take the other side - I wouldn’t worry about no lift unless there’s a particular problem like a very steep drive. I have a T with the sports front apron and no lift and it’s never been a problem, I live in a rural area with bad roads but it’s also been in various multi storeys, over speed bumps and pillows without issue.
