PDCC—worth it?
Just want some thoughts. My build locks in a few days. One SA believes a 911 is a sports car and as such should have the performance options. I’ve added everything I want except this. Just seems with the driving I’m doing it’s a waste of $3200. Is it noticeable in spirited everyday driving on a 992? Btw I ordered a manual c4s (yes I know pdk would make it faster)

On an SUV or even Panamera, the body control benefits of PDCC make sense. That said, the 911 is already pretty buttoned down. On a track PDCC may be useful but I personally don't think it's worth it for a street 911.

I had a 991.2 C4S with sport package, standard PASM suspension and RAS. I then ordered a 991.2 C2 GTS with RAS, PDCC and SPASM. I can’t say on the 992, but in the 991.2, I barely notice it when it’s on, over bumps or under hard cornering. Guessing that if you skip it and/or spend that money elsewhere, you won’t miss it. SPASM and RAS are probably worth it though...

So with the manual transmission you get spasm, sport exhaust, and sport chrono. I add RAS. So all that’s left is the PDCC. From what I’ve read in posts it does seem that ppl are a bit divided. I wanna load the car up but I don’t want to be wasteful at this point. This is the first new car I’ve ever purchased.

It's also noticeable for driving comfort.
