^Volt, a base 991 without PASM is standard height. An "S" with PASM ( standard option) is 10mm lower. With Sport PASM it is another 10mm lower, yet. 20 total.

Thanks LexVan.

Wow, I couldn't agree any less!

Definitely take the S - even better, go drive both and if your budget allows then base the decision on whichever feels best.

Smokers package, yes - even if just to provide a neat cover

Sport mirrors - definitely, they look so much better.

C4S - agree with Suzy, even if you don't need 4WD, if your budget allows then it is the best looking option (my budget was stretched, so I went C2S, but if I could justify the extra $10,000 I would have taken it.

PDK - very personal, I can only say that this is my first Auto/Double-clutch car ever and I would never ever go back to manual (My M3 DD is a manual, and the Porsche PDK has spoilt it for me)

Sportdesign wheel (especially with paddles/PDK) big yes!

My advice would be to go for the S and also check the box on PSE. It's pretty close to a "must have" option in my view.

in short, you should look at the purchase and weigh your wants and needs...
clearly we don't buy these vehicles for their utility in the strictest sense...these are indulgent experience vehicles. given that, there's always some sort of trade off in price so i would assign categories of performance vs aesthetics. if you live somewhere with great roads, lean towards the performance side vs the aesthetics. if your roads suck, maybe consider weighing the luxury experience inside greater. if its going to be a daily driver, seriously consider whether or not you can handle the comfort (or relative discomfort) of the sports settings...as others have said...just go and drive them. if you can't, go somewhere you can. tie it into a vacation.
