PASM vs -20mm

[Lagerlout]

Getting closer to speccing a 997 C2S, car won't go near a track but will get driven with enthusiasm! I recently drove a 997 C2S with PASM and currently have an M030 Carrera. I don't want a car this time as hard riding as that as this will be my daily driver.

I have yet to drive a 997 with the -20mm and LSD. I hear varying viewpoints on these. Can someone tell me what the ride quality is like in the -20mm compared to PASM in normal mode? I found with PASM in normal mode, on terrible roads the ride quality was good if not slightly floaty.

I've heard the Sports suspension on the 997 is the ideal set up, not too soft, not too stiff - I'd like to hear viewpoints from owners - are there any -20mm owners wishing they specced PASM? C'mon fess up... How does -20mm compare to the previous version on the 996?

My old 997S was with -20mm and I adored it. It was the perfect compromise between PASM normal (which I found way too soft) and PASM sport (which was like a bucking bronco on any b road) and I would never buy a 997 without it.

It is also nothing like a 996 with sports suspension which was just plain 'hard' and uncompromising.

The one thing the -20mm does have is the LSD but you will only appreciate this on track where once it slides you can hold it there for as long as you want. Great for putting a smile on your face but a disaster for your wallet.

Excellent, sounds right up my alley!
