Default New guy here. Stupid question?

Hello guys. I am new here. Looking to buy my first carrera S in the near future. I have one in my sights which is a 2012.5 and am trying to see if PASM and PDCC are included. I thought I had read somewhere that they were standard on the S. Here is what the center console looks like. Sorry if this is a dumb question.


Thanks

This car has PASM (shock absorber on the left) but no PDCC.


Also, it has Sport Chrono (SC) but no Sport Exhaust (PSE).

2012.5's do not indicate PDCC on the PASM button like newer models. You need to look at the build sheet, OP.

https://admin.porschedealer.com/repo...AB2A98DS120629 - delete the vin here and input your vin.

See also STG's hot for sale thread at the top of the forum - invaluable resource with a great steward.

There are no stupid questions here. Only stupid answers. I own half of those.

Yes, the S model gets PASM (Porsche Active Suspension Management) as a stock option. The PDCC (Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control) is an extra option.

You really want to check the build sheet, because your PASM may be standard PASM or Sport PASM and the button doesn't provide any indicator of which.
