Default Front ground clearance / approach angle

We built a new house, obsessed with the civil engineer over the driveway design because it's steep, drops down from the street into a mostly underground garage. The big concern was the breakover angle from the street, fearing a low car would high center. Well, even a GT3 clears, no problem. What it doesn't clear is the bottom of the driveway at the garage door.

I'm looking at 991.1s and 991.2s, in base, S and GTS. They all have different heights and overhangs (measured from the center of the hub to most forward part of the front fascia). Porsche didn't provide it back on those cars. I really don't want to have to deal with scraping, which means backing down the driveway into a tight space.

I'd be grateful for any height measures under the spoiler lip, and for those feeling especially charitable, a measure of the overhang. Then I can calc the approach angle and see what, if any, models will fit.

P.S, hardly any have the front axle lift. :-(

Thanks, in advance.
