Ha!
I know that all PASM equipped cars are 10mm lower than standard chassis, but in my experience the PASM activated in sport is too hard for the usual UK roads. When I use it on my current car (Cayman S) i generally hit the sports button and then turn the PASM to normal setting.
I have never driven a Sports Chrono equipped car without the PASM suspension so just wondered about the ride quality (lets say with 19 inch wheels)? Is there a difference or is it all in the mind / dependent on model / wheel size / tyre type / roads etc etc?

All I can say is that the actual Sports Chrono functions (GPS lap timer, etc) must be the most inanely confusing and difficult thing to ever use.
The ridiculous thing is that some of the functions in the user manual only appear when the car is actually moving... so you need to read the manual whilst the car is moving and use that silly column stalk to cycle through the menus...
I remember flying down the Ring GP circuit into the sharp 2nd gear hairpin, selecting "Intermediate lap", and then it asks you a question, "New lap?" !!!
Porsche need Apple's help in making it a bit more user friendly!

I've never used it in anger successfully! I tried once and hit the lever the wrong was half way through, it then tried to do an oil reading before telling me i needed to turn the car off.The ridiculous thing is that some of the functions in the user manual only appear when the car is actually moving... so you need to read the manual whilst the car is moving and use that silly column stalk to cycle through the menus...
