The 718 GTS 4.0 offerings are actually both PASM.
It has PASM Sport (-20mm) as standard, and the option is letting you choose just PASM (-10mm) if you want a more compliant suspension, and a slightly higher ride height.
You get PASM in both offerings, one is "PASM Sport", the other is just "PASM"

I'm frustrated as I have my allocation and my Rep told me to just build 1 and generate the code so he could submit it and we'd refine it later.....that takes 1/2 the fun out of going through this process...

Yup,its really disappointing that this was messed up like it has. Very amateur execution of what should have been a pretty straightforward launch.

Interesting track test. The Cayman needs cup2's to compete. The A45s is really impressive for the price.

Not trolling but genuinely torn. Building out a 4.0 to my liking crosses just north of 100k. I’ve also been looking (drooling) at a 992 C2 which comes to $115 spec’ed.
When the first caymans came out I was in my 20’s and I fell in love (but couldn’t afford it). As the years went by it moved out of the n/a engines just as it finally came into my price range.
I had the oppo to drive a 911.2 c2 for a few hours through the Drive program last year and it felt/sounded great (only when PSE is on though). I test drove a 981 Cayman with a N/A engine years ago but never the 718s.
If the 992 came with a n/a engine it’d be a no brainer for me. So my question is whether the n/a engine is worth having the price so close to a 911? Not being able to test drive a 4.0 doesn’t help...

Another advantage of GTS 4.0 over the Spyder is the wider exterior/interior color selection, including Espresso natural leather. I love my current 987 Boxster S in GT Silver with full natural brown leather so trying something similar on the GTS 4.0 configurator with Espresso. When I choose Espresso interior, the shifter cover and the shifter are still shown in black leather (the only black leather items in the cabin). Is this an error or is it how it's going to come in reality? Makes no sense to not do those in Espresso leather too.

that's a no go for me...the old Boxsters had black steering wheels even if the interior was beige or some other non-black color....didn't like it then, won't like it now
