SPASM ride quality?
Have found a very nicely equipped '13 C2S coupe with low miles I'm seriously contemplating. It does have PDK, Sport Chrono and Sport PASM. I know the ride height is lowered and the suspension is firmer. What do you guys that have it think of the highway ride quality?

Sport PASM in normal is perfect. I'd only use sport if I were driving on a glass smooth surface.

Coming from Audi's running on coilovers the PASM system is fantastic ... add the Sport springs to fill the gap a little and it is a package that is hard to beat while retaining a very nice ride quality in both PASM settings.
Find a car with SPASM along with PDCC and WOW hold on.
Mr Slingshot what are you driving now? Someone could probably give you a better comparison to something you're familiar with.

SPASM + PDCC here and love it. Normal mode is comfortable and the missus and I have driven up to 2 hours on CA highways in this mode and neither of us has had any complaints. Sport is great for firming up the ride and a little more feedback but totally livable. Sport plus is obviously even firmer and really fun for the twisties, back roads, and canyon runs. Personally, I usually run in either normal (commute, tooling around) or sport plus. I don't find myself hitting Sport much.

It's great. I also inquired about S-PASM before adding it to my spec sheet. I was worried about a rough ride, especially since I daily drive the car in LA traffic.
Now? 3 months in and I'm loving it. It feels firmer than my non-SPASM C2S but it isn't uncomfortable at ALL. In fact, it keeps impressing me more and more during long commutes. It feels quite comfortable on highways.
