It probably is (partially) a “resale thing”…but if you need it, you need it. Use it once, and you will be happy you have it. People say the front lip is easy and cheap to replace…I have the front and rear “sports facia” and the front lip is painted…so if it needs to be replaced, I doubt it’s a DIY cheap replacement.

FAL for my car is for in and out of my driveway. My 991.1 and 991.2 sometimes touched when getting out of the driveway but on the underpan aft of the front wheel. I’m hoping (pretty certain) that FAL on my soon to be GTS will eliminate that even though the touches with my two former 911’s were not severe.

I’m pretty light on options at $17K on the $137K base price in Porsche terms.

I too primarily use it getting in/out of my garage/driveway….but just yesterday I went to the liquor store that had speed bumps into the liquor store parking lot. I tried (once) approaching the speed bump without activating my FAL….the front sensors lit up like a Christmas tree…I then activated and they stopped. I have now GPS-linked this location to automatically raise the front every time I go get some wine/beer. It’s a wonderful “gimmick”.

992 GTS Coupe spec sheet
did some changes - added lightweight noise insulated glass, got rid of power steering plus and the white tach gauge.
