Answering a few questions about the GTS (since I have one too):
PASM is the standard suspension on the GTS. If it lists sport suspension, like OP's, that means S-PASM.
PSE is standard on all GTS cars. Which makes sense, since the GTS motor is really just an "S" with the X-51 option - and that includes PSE.
As far as I can tell, the front boot is smaller because the body is from the C4/C4S. That car has a smaller boot because of the all wheel drive system. The GTS doesn't have the awd, BUT it has the awd body so we get the smaller boot space. At least - that's the only reason I've been able to figure out.
And add my congratulations to OP. You have MY CAR, except for the white interior trim and parking aids which I didn't get. You'll have fun with it, that's for sure!

Bastard! I hate you!
Translation: Oh man, that is beautiful! I am envious!
Good for you!
As for the "quieter" sound, have you considered replacing the 3rd (center) muffler with the Sharkworks cross over pipes? It is a direct/easy swap and you don't have to jack up the car or remove the rear bumper cover to do it. I believe the 3rd muffler on the 997.2 is killing the sound on the stock mufflers and the PSE mufflers

Very nice! I'm really liking the seat backs as well. And white is great for reflecting away all that heat in LV!
Oh, you have to change your signature line too LOL!

Dan, see response below. I just know that all of the stuff I carried in my old trunk, (charts, medical equipment) won't fit. No biggee because we will switch to electronic records this year.
