Default -20mm suspension avail in U.S! (?)....link>>>

Sorry if this is a re-post, but I haven't seen this until today. Straight off Porsche U.S. website. -20mm is not showing up on configurator, though.

**pretty neat effect when you roll mouse over suspension options.

The -20 makes the standard setting look like a hummer.

I wrote the president of PCNA for information regarding the availability of the -20 option in the US back in October. I never heard back. I think it is what many enthusiasts would opt for, with a real LSD (instead of ABD) and the obviously lower, stiffer suspension and bigger sways. Should also make migration to a more serious setup like Motons easier/feasible, as PASM may not be happy being disconnected (I don't know).

Anyway, bought a GT3 instead of waiting for the -20 option to be released in the US.

Total conjecture, but I'm guessing (based on 996 US sport suspension vs. ROW sport susp) that Porsche would spec a different spring and revised dampers for the US, and it would be a -10 option, same ride height as the PASM cars. As such, prolly a pretty low priority item, and likely far off.
