2008 CS with PASM - Worth the extra $ ?
How hard is it to find a CS with PASM and is the option worth the extra cash? How much of a premium should this S carry over steel suspension S's? Is the air suspension reliable and durable?
Looking for advice from those who have it or have had it on an S.

Your post was not clear. PASM and air suspension are two different things . PASM is a system of shocks that have adjustable valves to provide two different suspension firmness levels. It may be combined with air suspension or not. Air suspension basically involves a compressor and storage tank that can modify the suspension firmness and level through air pressure ( very basic answer) Some people commit to the position that air suspension is necessary if you tow, I don't unless you are towing heavy loads with heavy tongue weights. PASM is a great option. I had a 2008 Cayenne GTS with Air suspension and was not overwhelmed with it on my 2011 Cayenne S ( not on the boat headed my way) I did not get air suspension but did get PASM. I would think that air suspension might get expensive as the vehicle aged. Long answer to a short question.

I have PASM with air suspension on my CS. I like it very much, and it has been reliable overall. I'd highly recommend it.
